Drank this over 2 days while in Napa and dripped it all over it but it was a tasty treat. Paired great with some smoked chicken from Q on night 1 and then great with pizza on night 2, cant ask for more. It’s a bigger styled pinot but that helps the food versatility. Cranberry, baking spice, and a little graphite. Not dense, but definitely full of flavors in this early stage. This should continue to improve for 3-5 yrs.

Sweet young thang. Rich red fruit, subtle cedar.

Silky smooth... nice spice and restrained fruit but in a good way. Tannin is muted. A great Pinot to drink without food too. Glad I have a few more bottles.
