  PnP. Has come together really nicely in the last 6 months. Red berry, cherry, spice. Pretty consistent with my initial note from 9/22. Previous note noted that the fruit was a bit on the riper side, but it's in better balance to me now and seems to have shed some of that baby fat. There's still really bright acidity which comes through in the finish. This is a terrific bargain at $24 full retail. I didn't buy any of these to cellar, but this will drink well through 2027-2028. My regular shop has a single bottle left and I may need to pick it up - not necessarily for cellaring but just because I always need delicious wines to drink.

  Gobs of strawberry on the nose, spicy cherry on the palate. Smooth and balanced, a little grip on the bittersweet finish. Good stuff at this price point, well done Vincent!

  Spicy strawberry and raspberry fruit aromatics, delicious and bright strawberry flavors, good tension on the palate. Huge value play here.

  Bottle opened yesterday and left open on the counter overnight. Cherry, red fruit, spice, a hint of cola. Medium body, medium acid, tannins seem fully integrated, per the vintage, the fruit has a slightly riper quality, but there's good acidity to balance it. This is his entry level pinot and, at $24 full retail, it's a solid value that should drink well through 2027.
