First of two bottles purchased on release. Wonderful notes of black cherry, spices, and just a hint of earthiness. I would drink over the next three years based on my bottle today. Great wine and sad to see the Ancillary brand come to a close.

Also not generally a pinot fan because of overly strong greenish finish, but this wine had both more body to balance out the finish, plus the tannins on the finish were really coming together nicely.

Not generally a Pinot fan, and when I do like them they’re fuller than the varietal norm, so take it for what it’s worth, but I get nothing above average from this wine.

Birthday Party (Princeton, NJ): Red fruit, strawberries, cherries, spice. Fresh and light.

Decent nose. But very muted fruits on the palate.
