October 16, 2023 - Drank non-critical, however, similar to my first note, this final bottle was more fruit-forward than savory or herbal. But I thoroughly enjoyed it, nonetheless. Again, a really nice wine, though their pricing might be a tad ambitious.

August 3, 2023 - Another slight disappointment on this mid-weight Pinot with plenty of ripe cherry and raspberry, some vanilla spice and nice texture. A little short on the finish. Lacked a little depth though perfectly pleasant. Better than average Cali Pinot but by no means noteworthy.

July 31, 2023 - Tasty dark cherry and raspberry aromas and flavors with earth, mineral, and vanilla on the savory palate and moderate long finish.

July 1, 2023 - Medium light color. Not cloudy, but not shiny either. Guessing it’s not filtered.
Beautiful nose with cherries, wild raspberries, herbs, baking spices and tea. Needs some air to open up and then it’s even more nuanced with wild strawberries.
Lots of red fruit and great structure on the palate, very well balanced and ends in a long finish. Overall impression is; well made, genuine and elegant.
