April 6, 2024 - Drank over two evenings with similar impressions. Did not decants, but let the wine open in the glass. Delicious red fruit flavors. Very pure with medium intensity. This is a very well made. Drinking well now.

March 7, 2024 - A backup bottle after the red Burgundy was oxidized. Pop and pour, drank half the bottle over 2 hours. This bottle was consistent with my experience with this wine. Lots of tangerine is the hallmark, spice, cherry, cola, good acid.

January 6, 2024 - Opened, poured an dlet sit about 45 min. Then: Note much on the nose. Taste starts off with mixed fruit; maybe some spice; acidity OK; tannins not an issue; some warmth on the finish; at least in the beginning, fruit and acidity not quite in balance. Towards the end of the glass (about 30 min from first sip), better balance up front; sweetish fruit beginning to show; warmth on the finish a bit more noticeable. Still a pleasant wine; maybe not the usual R-M Sonoma Coast profile. Based on this bottle, I'll drink my remaining sooner, rather than later.
