Still youthful but already drinking well. Pronounced nose intensity with notes of ripe red cherry, cooked red fruits, ripe strawberry. Medium+ acidity and medium tannin. With improve with ageing.

Thanksgiving 2023 (Dogwood Grove/Rock Spring, Virginia): Although W-S has a reputation as one of the more age-worthy Cali pinots, I decided to pop this one early (inspired in part by strong CT feedback). This was brimming with dark cherry fruit that evoked a juicy bite into a summertime farmstand cherry. Luscious and smooth. Also showed some elegant notes of cedar, baking spice, and glacé clementines. The clear second-place finisher at the dinner table (behind the Red Burg).

Ruby color with medium legs. Raspberry, strawberry and cedar on the nose. Cherry, vanilla and white pepper on the palate. Long silky finish.
