Tuesday, October 5, 2021 - Quite effusive when popped. Pretty florals and sweet strawberries jump out of the glass. That sort of sweet forward character fades quickly. Black cherry with a distinct sort of pined herb note marking some obvious stem inclusion. That stem inclusion is there on the palate with a more vegetal sense but only lightly so. It also brings along a light sense of tannin. It's clearly a darker cooler mountain Pinot sort of character overall. . On night two its even more subdued. But also rougher at the finish and there is a glycerin sort of weight in the midpalate. I'm skeptical of the 12.9% on the label given those factors. I liked it a good deal more the first night when the expression won me over. That makes it more cocktail than a wine of contemplation. It a nice a example of a CA Pinot but not much more.
