March 9, 2019 - From a magnum. Citrus, cherry cola, raspberries and orange peel on the nose. Palate had a balanced ripeness for a new world pinot but the oak was too dominant at this age. Hopefully the wood will integrate.

January 19, 2018 - Very nice pinot that has a fragrant fruit driven nose, silky texture and beautifully balanced finish. Decent complexity with black tea notes accenting the black cherry and purplish fruit.

August 25, 2017 - Clear, perfect mauve with a light pink rim, but cannot see the legs/tears due to improper vessel.
Clean, med+ intensity, cooked blueberries, merino cherries, violets, red licorice, and coffee grinds.
Dry, med- body, med- acidity, med- tannins, med- alcohol, with further tastes of dark figs, cranberries, a whiff of rhubarb, cooked tomatoes and elegant dark chocolate. Perfect balance and a wonderful finish. Elegant, feminine and nicely softened.
