December 19, 2020 - Opens nicely after 30 min. Faded quite a bit on day two. Decent QPR. I wouldn't age this much longer than another year or so. Drink remaining bottles by 2023.

May 6, 2020 - PNP. Still tight after 3 hours. Much better on day two. Can drink now with a long decant or hold.

March 11, 2020 - I’m not a huge fan on Pinot but I enjoyed this. Very well balanced. Flavors of cherry and pepper. Light acidity and a clean finish.
