December 19, 2023 - Love this style of Pinot from Carneros. On the nose, the aromas are of black cherry, strawberry with a little cinnamon. This is medium bodied with flavors of pomegranate and black raspberry with a smooth spicy finish. One of my favorite Pinots for sure.

January 30, 2021 - The highest rating I think I have given a wine. Superb. Floral notes hit first with cherry and vanilla in the background Was given this as a birthday present in May 2019. Paired with grilled pork loin, sun chokes, and trumpet mushrooms flavored with coriander seed, hot pepper flakes, and apple butter.
