Goes like this. Copper penny, metallic, woolly wet blanket. Brightens with vanilla and coconut oak creme brulee. Lands on beautiful bruised apples and bartlett pear, lingering lemon oil.
Oxidized and youthful, and overall nice, not excellent. — 2 months ago
Where the cool kids and the somms can get along. Wildly balanced in a harmony we can all agree upon. Potpourri of fresh fleshy cherry, stems, full of green pine and acetone and crystalized Luden cough drops, residues of mint, meat and blood.
Texture like crushed velvet. Damn soft, subtle cush crunch. — 2 months ago
In Texas we take breaks from red wine in chunks of 6 months. When you're out of practice, this is a great return ticket to Pinotland. Uncomplex, a reminder of the generosity and joy in a 56 degree pour.
Enveloping cherries and flecks of shaved cedar, bright. Fresh, vibrant, collected. — 3 months ago
More fruit than I like (just personally), it has some mossy yeasty compartments where the fun stuff hides.
Christmas crimson, cranberry, strawberry melon, minty Douglas fir and brioche.
Has some umph. Concentrated bitter sweet back and forth that's all play. — a month ago
Alpine sting, hot with layers of insulation. Layers of saturated cherry cola syrup, pine, cedar, minty menthol, black prune, and roses floating in the background.
Plushy and supple. Sweet and alcoholic and medicinal, a little too hot for summer, a ripe drink riper for a cool night. — a month ago
Pours maroon, feels purple velvet.
Unashamed acetone, like the best nail polish and wild jungle juice. Dark plums and raspberries with a sweet midnight pruney core.
Sweet and tart and pulpy and a good ride if you raised your hand and signed the waiver. — 2 months ago

Balanced, elegant nose, but the main event is the gravity blanket texture and deep concentrated flavor that goes and goes and doesn't feel showy. It's a powerful dichotomy with momentum up and to the right.
Sweet tobacco, cocoa, graphite, cherry, black pepper, and lavender. — 12 days ago
