March 11, 2023 - Concentrated, deep color, well integrated tannin, no rough edges. Decanted two hours before. Cranberries, pomengranate, spice box. Has at least ten more years of life ahead of it.

July 26, 2020 - This was outstanding. Rich, ripe and with great depth. Cranberry, cherry , earth, & spice. Excellent balance, integrated, and with a silky, lean texture.

September 22, 2019 - This was just short of spectacular. Great balance and complexity with layered flavors of dark berry/cranberry, earth, sous-bois, and spice. Slightly lean, smooth texture typical of Oregon pinots and with a long finish. Drinking great.

September 9, 2018 - Amazing fruit right out of the gate. Dense palate and layers of soil and rock that added to the thickness and deepness of the taste. Liked very much and will go at least five more years but drinking really well right now. would have liked to see how this one would have aged.
