June 12, 2021 - Found this well hidden in my wine cellar. Assumed it was well over the hill. Screw cap. Luckily tasted before pouring down the drain. Surprise----nice cherry nose with an earthy, dark cherry, berry taste--and very nice with a copper river salmon filet baked in butter. Chalk it up to a talented winemaker and a good cellar. I have two more---definitely time to drink up if you got'em.

May 24, 2020 - I would opine that this wine is in its waing gibbous phase. After encountering this winery and its Pinots for the first time early in the last decade, I jumped on an email offer for a few bottles a year or two later.
Cherry, black currant and cinnamon on the nose; dark fruit, cranberry on the palate; strong mineral finish with a touch of the cinnamon note returning. I plan on finishing my remaining bottles of this vintage up with food by the end of the year. -

January 12, 2020 - Initial nose of round cherries that extended to the first part of the taste as well, but this faded after a few minutes in the glass. Some hints of bitterness here and there. Overall short finish. Consistent with previous bottle.

December 31, 2019 - 12 year vertical of first 12 vintages that I brought from my cellar. Tasted with Rollin, Corby, my wife, my cousin and spouse, several wine writers and a food blogger invited by Rollin and Corby.
