    March 3, 2021 - Classic Pinot bouquet. Acid plus and juicy. Fruit flavors are not quite focused or intense.

    December 18, 2020 - Friday night wine with the Mandalorian. Let decant for about an hour and change. Pinot Noir glass and its pretty dark and opulent; a light underneath the glass shows a hazy ruby. Swirls medium, nose is cherry and rhubarb, tomato skin, some earth and a light mint. Unexpected. Second glass, same result. The palate is forward and lighter side of medium bodied. Dark cherries, black fruit undertones, getting that rhubarb in the mid-palate with medium acidity. Slight in tannin, with fruits and earth fading for a shortish finish ending on a slight tart note. The nose was a bit of a surprise, sipped smooth end to end, and just a fun bottle.
