Was more impressive as a mere taste. Cool story, clearly well made and well attended, has intrigue, BUT...
-too much acid, tbh... it just obliterates anything else. -there's simply too much available wine being made in this crunchy/natty/juicy/hazy style for this to be even a decent QPR. I taste the style here, and it's a phenomenal representation of it... but not much else.
There are futzzed with wines that end up tasting generic due to how the wine is raised... and there are UNfuttzed with wines that end up tasting generic because of how the wine was raised. This is the latter.

I love this. Almost trousseau- but more weight. It is crunchy/natty/juicy/hazy stuff (per FiggySmells). But I dig it. Would buy again at $61.

Garnet. Earthy and somewhat floral w. dark berries. Medium acidity, few tannins, a bit fleshy red fruit with good balance. Fine length.

A bit more fruity than a typical Pinot, but very well balanced.

Slight initial effervescence, pretty red fruited palate.
