Deep nose with classic forest floor, incense, and choke cherries. Feathery. This carries its own temperature that seems untempered. Forest floor, small berries. Spicy finish with hints of agave. Not declining, and ready to drink.

Very nice sweet cherry vanilla nose. Light in color, but still has nice fruit flavors and the higher alcohol is not a distraction yet. Soft and elegant.

Was not expecting a lot given previous ratings, but this blew me away. Certainly more full bodied and cherry colored compared to more elegant lighter pinots, but extremely complex and transitional. Lively fruit and caramel right out of the bottle. Will be interesting to see what a few hours does to this bottle. Died off on day two, but still really nice. Would not guess it was a pinot due to girth.

Spicy pinot. A bit short on entry but gains on the end in a clearly focused dark bing cherry with se ondary notes of shrooms and earth.

One dimensional but pretty tasty. Nice sour cherries. Still could use more time.
