  November 28, 2019 - good nose but fell off on the palate. it had to open for a couple hours yet tasted slightly past its prime because the fruit was so lacking. a bit disappointing.

  July 9, 2017 - From a double magnum. I had this with my wine group. Its a very light (in both color, body, and taste) pinot noir. For most of my group, it was just too light, as they are used to a more "CA" profile. My score reflects the group, if it was just me, I would rate it a point or two higher. Still has the structure to age for a few more years, at least. Its got a nice balance between the fruit and acidity. I will say this...I HATE the hard wax capsule they use...I pierced my thumb when the blade I was using to chisel it off slipped!
