  October 14, 2019 - As per the vintage, this was a rather feminine version of OR Pinot. I mean that in a very positive sense, as it had a freshness and juiciness that are often lacking from the 2012-2018 vintages. Cherries, mushrooms, earth and raspberries on the lovely nose and medium bodied palate. Another ‘shitty’ 2011 Pinot that I quite enjoyed. Drinking well now, but no rush (A-).

  November 28, 2018 - A good value pinot noir. I have found that bottles vary somewhat in fruit. The fruit in this bottle was not as big and complex as others I have had. Overall pleasant.

  May 30, 2018 - Moderate nose of red fruit, tart cherry, cranberry. More cherry and red fruit on the palate, medium long tart cherry finish with hint of spice and pepper. Tannin is mostly resolved. Attractive and definitely wide open but probably has at least several good years ahead.
