Dark, angry, showing some structural stiffness for a bit. Unwound eventually, loved the dark and deep profile it has. The oak is a little pushy, but melted more into the wine after a couple hours. Smoke, roasted black cherry and cassis, forest, granite, beef, so much black pepper. — 17 days ago

Simply a beautiful Pinot Noir. Exceptional wine from Mikey Etzel. Approachable now but the two other bottles and the magnum I have promise to be amazing in years to come. — 8 days ago

Dark pungent wine. Taste better than smell. 15%. Sat for over an hour and didn’t open up. Drinkable but not what I expected for a a chateauneuf du pape — 13 days ago

Super green with really long acids. Just ripe yellow orchard fruit and lemons on the palate accented with lime rind bitters. Intense minerals. — 10 days ago
