  This bottles is large and somewhat mushy and hints at things to come.
  
  Save last bottle until 202… 2026?

  After the bottle was empty, I had a chance to review my previous TN and it was spot on almost three years later. Still slightly heavier than something from Oregon, but the sourness has evolved into a hint of herbal savoriness. Give it 10 minutes of air and it is ready to go. What a beautiful and an excellently made bottle of wine.

  Excellent on night 1. Remainder the next day wasn’t as bright or alluring.

  Fleshy, tasty, somewhat aged. It’s lost its baby fat but that leaves behind a bit of jumbledness. Still, nice to drink.

  I'm not a fan of California Pinots.
  
  I am a fan of this wine!
  
  Bright strawberry, cherry and white pepper on the nose. The palate is filled with tart cherry bordering on sour but with perfect acidity. It's body is heavier than an Oregon pinot, yet not over the top like most of the typical Cali Fruit Bombs.
  
  Class wine from Ojai Vineyard, again.
