  Grapes are sourced from the Hein, Abel, Henneberg, Monument Tree and Kiser vineyards in the Anderson Valley and Yorkville Highlands. Medium body. A solid wine with plum and currant notes. Some smokiness on the finish. Moderate tannins. This was a better match with the steak au poivre than the German Pinot we also drank. 90 points.

  May be loosing a step, just past peak, still tasting pretty good !!
  I agree with my tasting notes of just over the past 2+ years. The cork was near perfect after over a decade in the bottle. This balanced Pinot Noir was consumed over two days. Ruby color with slight oxidation, clarity medium. Aromas and flavors of cranberry and bing cherries with a medium finish. Great winemaking and blending at Copain by Wells and the crew. This Pinot Noir is an age worthy wine and may have more years of life left. I still have one more bottle of this vintage remaining; I may open it in a month or so to verify this note.

  I agree with my review of just over 11 months ago. Tasting great now !!
  The cork was perfect after a decade in the bottle. This balanced Pinot Noir was consumed over two days. Deep ruby color with little to no oxidation, clarity medium. Popped and poured, this wine was much more soft and integrated on day two and had not fallen apart. Aromas of cranberry and bing cherries. Silky flavors of red cherry, raspberry, and strawberry compote with a tasty medium finish. Great fruit made into a balanced Pinot Noir through great winemaking and blending at Copain by Wells and the crew. This Pinot Noir is an age worthy wine and has more years of life left. I still have three more bottles of this vintage remaining; I may open one of them in a month or so to verify my rating.

  Wine in the time of Corona Virus - Quarantining in NYC & NH; 3/7/2020-9/1/2020 (NYC/NH): Opened for Friday Family Zoom and finished on Saturday Friends Zoom. I didn't taste this until night 2. Purchased from winery at release, but my palate has shifted quite a bit since then so was pleasantly surprised with how this was drinking. No sweet over the top cherry cola flavors here - more tart cherry, with a medium weight mouth feel. I enjoyed the tartness and freshness on the palate.
