October 30, 2022 - Even better than the last bottle with similar tasting notes but more nuanced, complex, and savory that only more age can reveal. Lovely pinot!

July 3, 2021 - Yet another Joe Davis wine that I love. Great purity, elegance, and structure on this wine. Fresh red fruit, spice, and autumn notes. Lovely finish. A graceful, but deep wine. Utterly fantastic with a LONG life ahead.

October 10, 2020 - So fresh and pure, shows elevated acidity, with beautiful and restrained (slightly) sweet red fruit. Best Arcadian showing I can recall.
