March 24, 2024 - A great wine with a delicious flavor profile of red fruits (predominantly cherry and cranberry). However there is some blackberry stashed in the many layers with spice, light black tea, and minerals. This is well crafted and the alcohol, tannin, and acid are balanced with a medium plus finish.

April 30, 2023 - Nice full throttle pinot but my pallette prefers a more subtle complex style these days. Maybe time will soften this more.

November 19, 2022 - This wine hit big on the pop n pour. Almost too much so for me. But time softened it. A bigger full flavor style for sure but has depth and layered and is balanced. Many more good years ahead. May even notch up for my pallette.

January 16, 2022 - Nice combination of blackberry, spice and an underlying touch of earth. Violet and floral notes. Great weight but not overbearing. Continues to offer an diverse and complex drinking experience. This dances from on component to the other as it presents a choir of flavors and highlights. Definitely catches my attention throughout the glass. I love the interplay between the fruit and spice.
