August 6, 2023 - Had lots of Ken Wright Pinots over the years, this is my first time enjoying this vineyard offering. PnP. Made in a riper, richer, and fuller style: ripe plums, cherry cola, black raspberry, sweet baking spices, black herbal tea, and rich chewy black dirt. Well integrated, the unobtrusive structure provides balance and support. Ends medium long. Worked perfectly with the spicy Cajun salmon, dirty rice, cauliflower, and broccoli. Very nice, drink through 2027.

August 5, 2023 - Pnp... enjoyed in a horizontal tasting of 6x 2017 Ken Wright Pinots purchased 2 years ago fro garagiste. All were very good but the Shea and Freedom Hill were everybody's favorite

January 18, 2023 - Really nice Pinot from Ken Wright. A little sweet on the first sip, more than expected, but a very long, rich finish.
