December 3, 2020 - Last of 6 bottle purchased and consumed over the last two years. The other bottles were consumed too early and this was definitely the most enjoyable. The additional bottle age, as well as a long decant certainly helped smooth it out. A solid everyday Pinot with good balance and classic characteristics of red fruit and spice. Paired well with baked chicken thighs, too.

November 30, 2019 - Perhaps there is inconsistency in the "vinted and bottled" wine contained in these bottles. Our experience was considerably different from other reviewers. Ripe, plenty of fruit, tannins on the way out. Excellent sipping wine. Also went well with our dinner. It took a few minutes to develop in the glass. Plum, black cherry and pepper notes. We would buy more, if available.
