June 30, 2019 - Darker fruited than I anticipated but darn good. Tasty on night one but I took a while, with air, for it to open up. There was a glass left for day two which we agreed was more open and even more enjoyable. Definitely has many years of life ahead. Probably should wait at least 3-4 years before opening the next bottle. Well done!

April 30, 2019 - Delicious slightly tart dark cherry with spice and forest floor notes on the nose and palate with refreshing acidity on the long finish. Drinking well!

February 6, 2019 - Justerini portfolio tasting. Red sweet fruit aromas. Clean and focused. Nice attack , filling out nicely and finishing very good and balanced. Some earth and a touch of bitterness. Best Pinot on display.
