  June 19, 2022 - "Día de los Daddys" (Chicago, IL): Drinks like a cool-climate pinot (there haven't been that many cool Oregon vintages since then). Tart eating cherries (as opposed to straight up tart cherries) on the nose with a bit of spice and stemminess. The palate is acid-driven and lean, with slightly coarse tannins. Certainly this has the material for further aging, but I do like the balance of the tart fruit with the structure right now.

  July 8, 2017 - Took awhile to open fully. Beautiful Pinot. Vibrant; dark cherry notes. No drop off at the finish. Bergstrom consistency, as usual.

  February 11, 2017 - I do love this wine. Nose is powerful with semi-sweet cherries, baking spice, black pepper, and just a bit of dry earthy dust. Palate is bright with fruit, extremely fine but chewy tannins, smoke, earth, cinnamon, and lemon oil. Fascinating and delicious. Finish is long and lingering. This is a beautiful, powerful, and versatile wine.

  November 26, 2015 - Drank on Thanksgiving (Bergstrom is a tradition) next to a 2011 Temperance Hill. The Gregory Ranch was not as good (for me) as the Temperance Hill - a little thin and bland in terms of nose, mouthfeel and balance. Still good - just not up to expectations.
