August 5, 2023 - Savoury, earthy, dark fruit and hints of spice and enoki mushrooms.
A bit on the crunchy side and lacking charm. Drinkable but soulless.

July 3, 2023 - My first bottle of 4 purchased on release. PnP, not usual for me, pleasant ruby crimson color. Nose has cherry, rose petals and baking spice. Palate has attractive acidity and good energy but seems a little hollow on the mid-palate. Finish is moderately long. This may have needed a little more air prior to drinking but in this instance I had hoped for more.

February 7, 2023 - A deeply spicy and earthy expression of pinot noir, this offers up plenty of exotic cherries and spiced cola, while the oak adds cinnamon and other baking spices.
