April 8, 2022 - Light, brickish red. Overwhelming nose of spicy cinnamon from new European oak. Fruit is subservient, but overall the impression is appealing if you like lots of oak — and perhaps a little VA — in your Pinot. At 7 years of age, it's still drinking well, held together by, I would guess, the wood tannins. By the second day, however, the fruit is gone, and it's showing some off-flavors. It's been sold cheaply on wtso.com. Has the winery gone out of business?

January 6, 2022 - So different from the 2013. Barely noticeable fruit, more dried cherry than plum or blackberry. Lots of herb flavors, spice and tannins. A nice savory and almost oxidized bouquet.
