PnP. Pure red fruit (raspberry, cherry, and strawberry). The fruit aroma has a wonderful sweet character to it. Some spice, and some earthiness I didn't get last time. On the palate the fruit is focused and leaner, with good acidity and supply tannins to balance and frame the fruit. A bit more secondary character than the last time I tasted this in Nov 2019, but this still seems young like it has a lot more to show and needs some time. Fresh and bright, but also elegant and lean. The balance is terrific and the character is classic Oregon pinot.

Transparent ruby. Lovely and boisterous nose that is floral, and that also shows some sweetness, with some creamy vanilla notes. Delicate mouthfeel but quite punchy with tart red berry fruit. Red cherry bubblegum, red plum. Structurally this is certainly in the higher acid / lower tannin box.

Bight and ethereal and red fruited. Very strawberry driven. Maybe not as compelling as on release but still lovely.

Vic's. Extremely light, almost rose in appearance. Drinks more like gamay than pinot noir.
