August 1, 2022 - Wow! Drinking beautifully at this point. Great flavors of dark cherry with great mouthfeel and smooth and silky finish. Savory and polished. Just a beautiful and delicious wine. Excellent vintage and outstanding wine to represent it.

September 21, 2021 - This continues to integrate, settle in and evolve nicely. Polished red fruit with forest floor components- a bit of earth, bit of mushroom. The purity of fruit is what still is front and center. Seamless deliver and silky on the palate. It is a privilege and pleasure to have enjoyed these wines over the years.

July 2, 2021 - I will admit up front that my loving spouse consumed a majority of this one, but in the glass I enjoyed the quality and excellence of this wine revealed itself. Dark, red savory fruit with a great flavor profile emerge initially. As with other WesMar wines of this vintage, my mental image is one of a beautiful, highly polished wood surface. This is at the same time, powerful and elegant. I am fortunate to have more stashed away to enjoy over time as it continues to evolve.

December 13, 2020 - A delicious, albeit young Pinot that is already showing the great promise of this heralded vintage. This is resplendent in red fruit with savory notes of forest and mushroom. My lovely wife drank most of this as I was sampling through a number of craft beers, but I did get through enough of what was left the next day to know this is one to cherish further down the road. Tremendous upside here to look forward to.
