January 7, 2024 - Decanted and tasted, this fruit in this bottle was a bit muted, certainly not as good as the bottle I had eight years ago, seems to be fading a bit. I would drink sooner than later.

December 12, 2022 - I bought this recently for $40 from WineBid, and for that price, I am quite happy. Darker fruit, some leather, restrained and elegant.

February 5, 2022 - Slo-oxed for 30 minutes but was better after more time - maybe a 20-30 minute decant would be better. Aromas of dark red fruits and earth. The medium bodied palate is very nicely balanced with bright red fruits, dark red fruits, black tea, spice and earth - with completely integrated tannins. I would say that this wine is at its peak and could hold here for the next year or so.

April 30, 2021 - Exceptional fruit flavors of black cherry and blackberry. Mellow tannin structure throughout with a satisfying level of acidity. We thought this might have been past its prime but this Pinot aged beautifly.

October 16, 2020 - Elegant cherry on the nose and palate with a soft dark fruit flavor midpalate and a lingering cracked pepper finish. Nice balance of acidity throughout.
