December 18, 2022 - This was in lovely shape. Well balanced fruit, acid, structure. A joy to drink and it went too fast.

August 13, 2022 - To me, this is a PN typical of the Willamette valley: somewhere between CA and Burgundy.
Cherries and red plums; a tad medicinal. Think cherry cough drops. Fresh green herbs (sage and celery greens), orange peel, dirt/earth, apple with a saline quality. Medium bodied with medium + acid. Juicy.
Can drink now; but should pick up interesting tertiary flavors with a couple more years in bottle. It really depends on how juicy/primary you like your Pinot. -

February 13, 2022 - Lovely straight out of the bottle. Light colored at first but seemed to darken in the glass. A very small bit of age/funk, and dustiness, both of which dissipated with air. Light strawberry, subtle baking spice flavors, and a little bit of acidity. Drinking wonderfully now but might go for another 5 years or so.
