  Feels like it could use some time, but nice stuffing

  This is in a good place right now, glad I've held off. Clear bright red in the glass with initial cola aroma, giving way to spice drawer, cherry, black tea, and that Goodfellow piney-ness. Light cherry and strawberry on the palate with long, mouth tingling acidity on the finish. It will be hard to stay away from these at this point. Will have to try one of the '15 Heritage No. 4 soon to see if they are drinking as well.

  This was pretty popping right out of the gate. Quite tart and forward with amaro, licorice, black tea, violets, and cranberry. Opened up with only a couple hours of air into a dark berry, spice cake profile with leather and blackstrap, but still snappy. Last bottle.

  A little underwhelming, but a decent Pinot.

  Pretty closed upon opening. Wonderful tension and balance between a concentrated red fruited Pinot and energetic fresh structure on the palate. Quite nuanced, floral, seeming to hint at depth before the structure closes in. Best to hold this vintage for now. Really impressive for its potential though.
