  June 25, 2021 - BTG purchase with lunch at CLT airport in Charlotte. As others have commented, this is primarily fruit drven with ripe cherry, juicy raspberry, creamy vanilla, and earthiness with some evolving complexity. I still get unresolved oak in the background. Acidity lingers, and provides structure. Very good, just lacking notable complexity. Drink over the next 1-2 years.

  September 17, 2020 - Starts out feral and earthy, with campfire embers and decaying leaves, all in a good Burgundian kind of way. But as the wine is given the opportunity to air out, it opens to a burst of dark red fruit and hibiscus flavors, supported by good structure, dimension, and fleet-footed complexity. Lovely and gets even better a few hours later.

  May 4, 2020 - Moderate color and body. Primary fruit is a bit muted, some cherry and blackberry. More darker brooding notes of leather, earth and cedar. Nice but would like some more high-toned notes to complement the deeper notes.

  March 28, 2020 - This wine has developed well over the past 4 years and appears to be near its peak. Vinous and the Wine Spectator rated this wine 91, while the Wine Advocate gave it a 88. I have opened 3 bottles over the past 2 years and find my rating more in line with the Wine Advocate, although I keep increasing my evaluation. Fairly intense cherry fruit, good acidity, and moderate mid-range and finish. This is a very good (B+) Oregon Pinot to my taste and a well priced and very drinkable wine. It lacks a touch of complexity and better finish to score in the 90s. Still, a very enjoyable wine.
