May 26, 2023 - PNP Completely better than last bottle and completely devoid of sweetness. Nice acid, dry but filled with red fruits. I am a fan now. Very Burgundy like without the musty terroir or long lingering finish. Still very good,

April 11, 2023 - Decanted an hour. I didn’t notice the ripeness in my first bottle. There is also lots of new oak. The wine is fine but it is more like a lighter style CA Santa Rita Hills Pinot than an Oregon PN. If you’re looking for something more Burgundy in style this isn’t it. It is still well made just more ripe in style. A bit too sweet for me.

March 25, 2023 - 1 hour decant to a pale ruby in glass. Aromas of cherry, pepper, and dry leaves. Palate of red cherry, oak, pepper, and baking spice with fine-grained, dusty tannins. A medium, crisp acidity clears to a long cherry and oak finish. The wine is well balanced. Hard to describe to the house label from same producer we had right before but maybe more precise and with a little more finesse? Enjoyed this bottle slightly more.

March 18, 2023 - Decanted 45 minutes. Seems young still. Lots of Chambolle like red fruits. Wine for sure improved over the next hour. First experience with this winery but am totally happy with my purchase.
