December 26, 2016 - Very pleasant...took some time to open. Lovely nose of strawberry, raspberry, curry, carrion, wet forest floor and licorice. Med- to high acidity, and the abv is relatively high. This may age, but may also be as good as it gets. Any which way, enjoyed it. Sehr gut, muss ich sagen!

+ body, Med + acidity. Not overly complex, but a light and refreshing cool climate Pinot that pairs well with food. -

January 18, 2016 - Never had a pinot with that much northern-Rhone pepper aroma! very complex nose with relatively simple yet balanced palate. You can tell it is an entry-level work of a masterful wine-maker. great value!

May 24, 2015 - Surprised me! Nice P.N. from Germany -- Not for aging but good for current drinking. Fruit forward, not much tannin, good acid, food wine. Lighter body than CA P.N., more like pre-Parker wines. Screw top.
