Standard profile for this talented producer: transparent and delicate on the palate, medium-long finish, and remarkably reasonably priced. This 2018 still benefited from 1 hour+ aeration in bottle.

Nice light but flavorful Pinot. On the simple side, but quite pleasant and great accompaniment with lighter fare - in our case, homemade chicken burritos. I found the flavor profile to be nice and without a metallic note that the previous post describes.

On paper this wine should be right in my wheelhouse. Love the weightless feel and red fruited profile but there was something I didn't care for in the flavors. My btl had a metallic edge I didn't care for that made it fairly unappealing, for me. Likely just an off btl. Doubt Ill revisit.

Cherry, red fruit, some vanilla from oak, slight spice, some earthy funk. Lighter body but smells and tastes like Willamette Valley PN. And (as Tunaguy pointed out) it's $18 retail. What's not to like? It's not something to hold, but it should drink fine over the next couple of years.
