March 30, 2024 - Delicious red cherry, apple, spice, and floral notes on the nose and balanced palate with refreshing acidity on the long finish.

February 27, 2024 - PnP. Medium light red. Lovely red fruits on the nose. On the palate cherry, red apple, blood orange. Medium bodied nice balance with completely resolved tannins. This is perhaps a bit soft and lacking the acidity on the finish needed for longer term aging. Nice - drink up.

October 30, 2021 - Love this wine! Drinking great right now with tastes of cherry and strawberry and a hint of black pepper and smoke. The finish is a long one and you can almost feel the wine “dripping” in your mouth. As the meal got to the second glass, the wine was so smooth. It has a bit of a light Burgandy feel to it. It has aged wonderfully and should continue to do so. Hopefully newer vintages will be as enjoyable.

April 29, 2021 - crimson in color with cool nose of black cherry, blood orange, pine needle and wet rock. The palate showed brighter red fruits, bing cherry, pomegranate, the mineral rock and some earth kicking in slightly. Overall needs a little more time but some great potential here coming. Enjoy!

February 21, 2021 - Started out at room temp and with little, other than a nice, light red fruit aromatic vein of strawberry and white raspberry. Flavors were flat and faded/fading. If rated at that stage, I might have given it an 87/88. After giving it 20mins to cool in the fridge, the complexity started to show, with some high-toned fruit in the mid-palate but then, I ran out of time. Reinforced my preference for Pinot at cellar temp or a tad cooler; even more important, if from these cooler climate regions.
