October 8, 2020 - Purchased on Close out for $27 a bottle.
The wine is medium to medium strong garnet.
Nose is full of various strawberry scents. Stewed, fresh, sugared(think Strawberry shortcake), clove, and cedar.
Palate. This wine is so impressive when it comes to comparing it to other soft palate pinot noirs. Lush yet refined. Powerful flavors yet not overbearing. The potential for this wine to age gracefully is there, but why wait? It's ##%^ing yummy. -

You get the classic currant and vanilla too. The wine is integrated well. It has great structure and balance. A pretty good effort IMO.

April 3, 2020 - Let it breathe for over an hour. Nose is vanilla and blackberry. Bursting dark fruit across the pallet and a lovely light earthy finish. A very pleasant Pinot with our steelhead dinner! Might get better...
