Maybe too soon after shipment or just an off bottle but didn't really get a lot from this one will have to retry in a few weeks. For $20 I paid a good price but the next bottle needs to step it up to have made it worth it. Second day really fell off so maybe getting close to window and need to drink up. Would like to see another tasting note from this year I guess maybe I'll have to be that guinea pig :-)

Ruby color. Nice aromatics - smoky, meat, cherry, wood and spice, herbs. Medium body, stone, minerals, juicy red cherry, with a green herb streak running through it. Very nice soft Pinot. Well worth 20 bucks.

Halo is the vinyard dog who kept watch on the hill. I’ve heard this plot was sold recently, so no more bottlings with this name. Hopefully sold to a fellow winemaker or grape farmer. Drinking very well, deep color and pleasant, with almost no tannin. Recommend drinking up over next year.
