January 25, 2024 - One of the best wines I've had. I honestly couldn't believe it was a Pinot with its rich mouth feel and vanilla notes. Dark fruit and cherry notes and somewhat Creamy. Enjoyed at Elizabeth's on 37th in Savannah. Have this wine and go here.

December 31, 2023 - Nice California Pinot Noir. Very fruity and some okay notes on the nose but not overpowering. Made in a new world style which isn’t my favourite, but still very nice and very easy drinking. Lots of red fruit on the nose and palate with some floral notes to round it out.

Perfect party wine that requires no thinking. -

July 22, 2023 - Not a wine collector's wine. Overextracted, high alcohol and seemingly designed to appeal the following scene many of us have witnessed over the decades: Minibus full of 20-something bachelorettes who have already been to several wineries focusing on inexpensive sauvignon blanc, chardonnay and sparkling wines and they are now sufficiently liquored up to take the deep dive into reds as they pour and stumble out of the bus. There is a market for this wine, just not one in which I buy.
