  December 7, 2020 - Rich and smooth with just a hint of pepper on the finish. Definitely on the darker, extracted side of RRV Pinot. (14.5% alc)

  April 27, 2019 - Red cherry, plum, strawberry, granite, dried mushroom and a little vermouth. Full-bodied and luscious, with grace and a powerful finish. There’s a white pepper streak during the long finish. Distinct and modern, with there being a more masculine persona. Drink now - 2025.

  January 26, 2019 - Medium ruby color. Aromas of fig paste & cherry, sandalwood, cocoa dust, mushroom, smoked paprika and allspice berry. Bold spiced red fruit on the palate with earth, old cedar and dried floral depth. Slight heat on opening, blows off with air. Dense in the middle, with medium acid and fleshy fine tannin. Full fruit and moderate length on the finish. Richly styled with balanced structure. Younthful, but enjoyable now. Drink with decant or hold.
