November 17, 2020 - Red fruit nose. A bit closed straight out of the Eurocave. Red raspberry mid palate. Well balanced tannins with good mouth feel. Delish. 90pts.

June 20, 2020 - Suspect this is past it’s prime or had bad storage. Nose was tomato leaf bordering on pasta sause, added acidity (?) was out of balance and there was not much there in terms of fruit. While Casablanca is generally ‘cool’ climate this did not present that way at all.

April 21, 2020 - This has the garnet color and nose of an older Pinot that has developed...a beautiful earth, mushroom, real leather, all spice (or similar, and dried cherry fruit leather. The palate has tongue coating acidity and lush tannins. The dried cherry leather with maybe a hint of oak and vanilla come through and a touch of mushroom. Quite tasty over achiever.

June 12, 2019 - By the glass at the BA lounge, LHR. Freshly opened wine.
Soft, light, lacked acidity and structure. Ripe, juicy, spicy very much new world Pinot and a style we fail to appreciate. 87 at best1 person found this helpful Comment -
