  PnP. Quite clear cherry red color. Flowery nose of blackberries and cherries. Borders on being a fruit bomb. Full-bodied, jammy, red and black fruit and vanilla on the palate, well balanced by the acids. Should drink well for several more years. At under $30/bottle, a good QPR.

  last bottle of 4 - paired well with Shrimp and grits.
  
  Baking spice, bright cherry, tart cherry flavor profile that has mellowed with age. Great balance / drinkability and pairs well with food. 92+/- Should have bought more.

  Drinking very well now. Medium weight, berries on the nose with nice acidity, cherries on the palate with a long finish. Went nicely with Nicoise Salad/Rare Tuna.

  Excellent QPR. Focused small cluster fruit really sings her in perfect balance. Not a "huge wine" but an excellent effort.

  Drank with grilled Amberjack. Very tasty - similar flavor profile to prior tastings with some funky dark fruit that I can't figure out (mulberry / rhubarb?). Cola / raspberry (never noticed this in a pinot but it was noticeable in this wine), black cherry on nose & palate. High acidity with long tannins. 92+
  
  Arguably, this wine is a little extracted, but it is quite delicious and was excellent with the fish.
