January 2, 2021 - It’s either past it’s peak or not all it’s cracked up to be. Flat, non-lingering flavor; not much depth beyond dried dark fruit and slight morning-after campfire aroma. Pass.

September 6, 2020 - Much fuller-bodied and rounded-out since last tasted 15 mos ago. No herbaceous notes whatsoever, pure black and blue fruit here. This is what I look for in RRV pinot.

June 9, 2019 - May be the first time I could identify "iodine" (upon opening) as a taste descriptor, along with blueberry and dark cherry. Very light-bodied, not short on flavor, certainly well-balanced. Minimal oak influence coming through. Won't necessarily improve, safe to drink over the next 2 3 yrs.
