November 21, 2023 - Licorice and cola on the nose. The palate is ultra lively, with intense acidity, practically electric. There are cherry and spice notes, but the intense acidic tang masks them to a significant degree. Primarily for this reason, this wine is much better with food than solo, where it can be a bit overbearing.

November 26, 2020 - Medium color.
Strawberry, cherry on the nose.
Cherry and a bit of cola on the palate.
Medium tannins up front that fade quickly.
Sweet and balanced finished. -

March 21, 2020 - A really nice Pinot and ready to drink IMO.
Lighter in color, aroma and clarity but relaxed with lofty red fruits rising up from the glass.
A slight tannin keeps this together but the juicy red fruits of cherry, strawberry and cranberry shine though. Really nice with some sea salt crackers and a very mild cheese.1 person found this helpful Comment
