Pretty much the same as my 1/16/2024 note. The only difference is that this one is not full-bodied; instead, farily light-bodied and softish. Pleasant and tasty, but I wouldn't hold much longer.

Opened, poured and let sit about 40 min. Then: Maybe some reddish fruit on the nose. Taste is sort of citrus/pine (whatever it is, it is fairly typical of R-M Sonoma Coast pinot); maybe a touch of spice; close to full bodied; tannins and acidity are not a problem; finish maybe a bit short. The taste stayed pretty much the same from first sip to last. Tasty, though would have liked a bit of variation or other elements.

Fresh blueberry & blackberries with some rhubarb, citrus, and brown spice notes. Rounded body shows that dark fruits alongside nice stemmy spice notes & a little vanilla bean. Finishes nicely with a mix of dark raspberry, herby savoriness, and med+ acid. Had blind, side by side with the Anderson Valley. This showed more herb & slightly redder fruit, but they were much more similar than I expected.

Took a long time to open up. When it did, it proved to be very nice. Drinking well now after some patience,

Very delicious with lots of pinot character. No defects. Excellent purity of flavors and wonderful nose. Enjoy this baby now!
