November 18, 2020 - Decent Pinot: some bitterness which diminishes the overall appeal.

November 4, 2020 - Garnet colored. Herbal, drip coffee, woody, and eucalyptus/medicinal nose. There is an astringent element to this wine that I do not like on the palate. Lacks fruit and mainly savory

December 21, 2018 - Aroma: fresh cream, smoked meat, eucalyptus.
Palate: muted plum and berry flavors with meaty notes and a creamy texture. Definitely old vine character. Rose water. Restrained and subtle. Low acidity. Soft tannins. Needs more structure.
