Medium bodied Pinot at 14% ABV, with nice cherry fruit and some spice. You can tell this is one of the Santa Ynez grown Pinots as it’s a bit more spicy and less feminine than the Santa Rita Hills Pinots from Foxen. Good and should get a bit better with a bit more time. — 6 days ago

Had this 2021 as part of a tasting flight at Foxen this October. Having it now. Incredibly bright acidity. A lot of melon, citrus and cranberry flavors. Aromatic and full bodied and dry throughout. — 2 years ago

This surprisingly exceeded my expectations. Layers of cherry and darker fruits with a bit of graphite and pepper. Poured through an aerator and it was ready to go. — 2 years ago

2020 vintage. Tasted 2.5 weeks ago (9.3). This go round was a little prettier vs knuckle dragging but bottle wasn't open as long and juice had zero chance of hitting its stride with too many glasses to fill. Still...it didn't suck. 7.23.24. — 5 months ago
