June 24, 2021 - Tasted blind with all European wines, which may have been why this came across as a hot mess. The nose was very medicinal, iodine or anticeptic smell. We couldn’t figure out what it was. I guessed some sort of odd cab franc and syrah blend.
In summary, this is high end Meiomi. Close to 16% alcohol and drinks more like a syrah. Clearly I’m in the minority based on all the love for this wine but this was not for me and everyone at my group despised it in comparison with everything was poured last night. -

May 14, 2021 - Another great bottle brought by Edward tonight, changed my view to the American wines. A great PN bottle which compared to most GC quality of Burgundies, with expensive notes, silky palate and long after taste, but with unbelievable 15.7% alcohol content, which would be rare for the Burgundies.

May 15, 2020 - 10 yo Pinot which has quite a bit left. There was ripe raspberry and cherry on the nose, with some light spice and floral notes. Medium red color and wine was clear. Very well balanced, with at least a 30 second finish. Really elegant and enjoyable bottle

April 18, 2020 - Popped and poured. This is a translucent cherry red wine. On the nose, I get spice, cinnamon, some alcohol heat, and cherry coke. In the mouth, this is a fleshy, full liquid that feels a bit like a cocktail. The finish is sweet, with some evident wood influence. Overall, I am not a fan of this “wine.” The beverage is well-made, but it is also a heartless concoction. There is nothing about this that speaks of Pinot to me and nothing that makes me want to come back for more. The “ballers” can have this and I wish them the best. 88 points.
