September 28, 2018 - Nice structure. Quite a bit of spice that went very well with lamb kabsa.

October 15, 2016 - Aerated and decanted for 30 minutes. Initially a mix of red fruit, especially raspberry and strawberry with some spice and moderately strong tannins. Over the next 60 minutes, the tannins softened and the fruit took over. A really nice pinot if you like that style, which I do.

September 19, 2016 - I guess I'm in the minority here, but I found this wine to be completely over the top and goopy. This was more like a Syrah than a Pinot. The bouquet is a giant fruit bomb, with a strawberry jam nose. I was hoping for some earthy components, but they just weren't there. This just wasn't my cup of tea.
