November 28, 2023 - Light color. There's a nice little core of red berry fruit. But, consistent with my previous note from a year ago, still very tart on the finish. It's the sort of tartness I usually expect from some young pinots or zins, but it's surprising to encounter this after nearly a decade. Maybe the screw top keeps it all in, for better or worse!

August 26, 2018 - Similar notes to last time - acidity is higher, especially on PnP. Smoothed out over time. In decline.
