2018 vintage. Winemaker Matt Brady tames the hedonism of the Santa Rita Hills (only for a spell, don’t fret) and adds a little body, earth and spicefest to this offering. Doesn’t hurt that the juice is from 100% Pommard (muscular/hevvy Pinot) clone. Ruffly, 150 cases made. Find you do, acquire you must. — a year ago

2021 vintage. Tasted with the winemaker, Matt. Slightly more body (solid medium) than expected. Pretty nose with well-blended earth, delicate berries and brusque fruits. Concentration for daze. 4.10.24. — 16 days ago
