Pleasantly surprised..... didn't expect much as I had been underwhelmed by several TW direct offerings. Light strawberry and raspberry nose. Very light tannins with dust and a little thin/ short on the finish but a good simple everyday Pinot. I went back a month later and grabbed a couple of 2019's...will see how they settle down in the future.

This is my second time around with this bottle, and it's a tale of two completely different experiences. The first one, several months ago, was such an overwhelming sense of mushroom without any nuance or fruit I figured I'd save the money and just get a carton of fungus next time I went to the grocery. This second time, wonderful! Nose of cherry and cola with just a little dusty earth on the end. The palate continues with red fruit, strawberries, vanilla, and just a bit of forest floor at the end. Enough acidity to lift it and keep it interesting. Low tannin, and a medium long finish. I'm glad I took a second chance on it!

Big and fruity new world. Oregon pinot can be big and still nicely proportioned. I didn’t detect any cola notes, and that’s good. Went well with grilled salmon. Nice QPR.
