January 25, 2024 - Slightly astringent, light bouquet with not real strength of structure or palate. Interested to see how the other bottlings are from this year. I don’t think this was flawed.

September 26, 2021 - I didn't decant this. The first day it was very nice but not a show stopper. the second half of the bottle improved noticeably over the next two days. Lesson learned; this stuff needs decanting and/or possibly a few more years in the holding pen.

April 1, 2021 - Certainly very ripe, but combined nicely with earthy character and woodsy spice for a well balanced Pinot showcasing bright red and black cherry. A bit stern now, better 2022 forward. Lots to look forward to here.
