December 22, 2023 - Raspberry, strawberry, red fruit flavors, great acidity, long finish.
September 29, 2023 - Good pinot cherry cola flavor. Looking to a five year development from here.
August 26, 2022 - First of three. Delicious. Great cherry fruit. Drink or hold.
January 24, 2022 - This needed air. One hour decant in the cellar and an additional 30-40 minutes in the fridg and it's good to go. Used the New World Pinot Glass for this one.
Just a touch of sweetness with piercing red muddled fruit. On the palate it is super smooth and elegant with a most pleasing viscosity, absolutely fabulous. Drinking so nicely today I wouldn't wait if I had others.
December 31, 2021 - Third wine in a seven course wine and food pairing NYE party.
This needed a solid 90 minute decant as it is candied and sweet upon opening!!! Luckily the confection blows off and while still bright red fruit driven, it becomes much drier and the spice and structure step into the picture. Even develops a bit of cola and tea leaf notes on the finish. A very easy wine to like with enough air and paired beautifully with lamb meatballs in ratatouille.
May 1, 2021 - Medium red; lovely fruity nose; lots of ripe strawberry, sweet, slight hint of licorice; really nice and well-balanced, lots of summer with good density
December 16, 2020 - A great wine
December 16, 2020 - A simply wonderful wine. I wish I had more.
October 13, 2020 - Nice. Cola, red berries and some underbrush.
August 24, 2020 - Very enjoyable now, particularly after a couple hours of air time, and will only get better with more cellar time. Drink now or hold.
