October 7, 2022 - Lutum, you saved the best for last (bottle). My pinot vocabulary is inadequate, won't comment on the nose, but the taste was really great, the flavor was lots of barnyard, balanced with fruit, fully expressed w/o awkwardness or excess. Served with wild salmon, worked well.
Edit; yea, I see i kind of ripped on it in 2019. Not the same wine now! -

November 26, 2020 - Very good. Silky smooth texture on the mouth. Cherry, strawberry and cola. Happy I have another left

July 25, 2020 - Method: 68 degrees; hour+ decant; Burgundy glass
Look: pale- garnet; fast legs
Nose: forest floor, tree bark, spicy baking spices, light fresh dill, dried cranberry, light color
Palate: cranberry, light dried herbs, unripe strawberry; restrained palate; [unintentionally omitted notes on the finish]; dry; medium- body, decently silky mouthfeel; medium- tannin; medium+ acid
Overall: I'm honestly not a big fan of cranberry, and I like more complexity from lighter reds like this. It's restrained enough to not make too much of any impression on me. It's not a poorly made wine by any stretch of the imagination, but personally, I just find it to be mediocre -- almost, but not quite enjoyable, but I don't dislike it. -
