Had the 2023 in May of 2026. Definitely need to remember to look up where the wild fires happened before buying wine from the west coast. Smoke on the nose and in the glass. Kind of a thin Pinot noir. Wasn’t awful. Was pretty unremarkable in all aspects. Little bit of fruit with a very light body. Don’t believe I would buy this one again. — 5 days ago

Had the 2021 in May of 2026. Lots of fruit- to the point it was slightly perfumey on the nose. Black cherry with a little oaky sweetness and hints of spice. Super subtle tannins. Was a lot of fruit and didn’t seem well balanced between the fruit and the tannins because the finish was very dry. Not a fan. — a month ago

Had this one with lemon rice and greek chicken bowls. Very resiny-lots of pine. I enjoyed it but not everyone at the table did. Was wildly different than anything I have tasted. Fun. — 2 months ago

Enjoyed this one. Had the 2024 in May of 2026. Little bit of honey, some herby/grassy overtones. Some hints of melon, apricot and minerality. Would buy this one again. — 5 days ago

8.4

Had the 2023 in May of 2026. Had a strange smell. Settled down with time. Some dark berry flavors with a hint of spice. Paired well with Spanish chorizo and held it’s own with smoked pork. But wasn’t a favorite. Very short finish with hints of spice but was kind of “flat” and boring. — 18 days ago

Had the 2021 in May of 2026. Lighter bodied with hints of oak. Light sweet oak on the nose. Tannic finish with a thin, fruit taste in the middle. Was better with food for sure. The lighter body was more of a distraction. — a month ago

Hs the 2024 in May of 2026. Enjoyed this one. Big. Rich. Lots of dark fruits/jammy quality. Very short finish. Didn’t have with steak, but am thinking that second bottle in the wine fridge needs to be paired with a ribeye off the grill. Would buy/drink again. — a month ago

New wine for us. Little bit of honeysuckle on the nose with hints of citrus and wet stone in the middle. Lychee on the finish. Totally enjoyed this one and would buy again. — 2 months ago
