2023 vintage. The epitome of Willamette Valley Pinots, earthy floral aromas on the nose, robust berry flavors on the palette, medium bodied structure, velvety smooth finish with a slight hint of spice on the tail. Under $45, very enjoyable, great pairing with pasta. — a month ago

Blinded a dear buddy in the wine trade on this tonight, guesses all over the place, in a great spot, want to see this in 10+Y.

72H Update:
Nose has crushed blackberries, ripe plum, dried plum, dried tart cherries, moist mahogany and faint moist soil. Palate has tart plum, light molasses, blackberry compote, faint leather notes and fine tannins. Not as good as day one, but no slouch on day three. A wonderful experience, many years in the bottle to go ahead. — 4 years ago
