    July 31, 2020 - Very closed at first. Muted, metallic, not much else. Ten minutes in the glass and some cassis arrived on the palette; nose is still blood/iron. And then it didn’t go anywhere from there. A fine Pinot, but nothing special and disappointing especially for the age.

    July 24, 2020 - Classic Pinot with muted berry flavors, low tannin and alcohol.

    Short finish with fruit mellowing fast.

    September 14, 2016 - On the richer side. Well-made enough, but on the fruitier, less complex sides of the spectra. Pleasant but sadly uninteresting. Where oh where have the '12 Sonoma Pinots gone? Downhill.
