January 7, 2023 - Continues to age nicely, but palate is fairly simple. Plenty of fruit and acid to allow further aging, hoping for more mature and complex qualities to emerge. Slightly rough tannins on opening that smoothed out after decanting (recommended). Extending my drinking window out to 2027.

May 8, 2022 - Gorgeous bottle. Smelled delightful, tasted great. A red fruit profile with a lot of spice. Not quite delicate, but certainly not a full bodied pinot. Framed by nice acidity.

February 14, 2022 - Bandon Dunes PTI: 2012 Oregon Pinots; 2/14/2022-2/15/2022 (Bandon Dunes Resort): No formal notes on all these '12's. Great balance and earth notes backing up the cherry fruit is what I remember.
