January 8, 2022 - Very complete, enjoyable Pinot. Holding up very nicely at 9 years. Dark fruit, spice and earth notes in the aroma. Full bodied with rich fruit, soft tannins, balanced acidity, and pleasing finish. Perfect companion for cedar plank salmon.

February 21, 2020 - Just lovely tonight. Sweet black cherry aromas. Lovely, lush fruit on the palate. Cherries, strawberries, a hint of tartness. Beautifully resolved tannins. Fruit, acid, tannins are beautifully balanced. Finishes long and spicy. I can't imagine it getting better, but it can hold at this level for another 3 to 4 years.

November 21, 2019 - Better than the bottle I had 9 months ago. Dark cherry and lavender nose. Bright strawberry fruit on the palate. Polished tannins, lovely acidity, fine balance. Some licorice notes on the mid-palate. Finishes moderately long with bright strawberry fruit and pepper. Lovely now and will go out at least another 5 years. Nice stuff.
