Good stuff. Great acid, nice fruit, balanced all the way around. Really well done. Dark red fruit for days, feels like it’s going to age forever.

A wonderful discovery. Full Pinot profile. Hints of caramel and butterscotch.

Open and exuberant with loads of blueberry and fig flavors. Dynamic palate feel with delightfully refined tannins and nicely full body. Easy to get to the bottom of the bottle quickly!

Love the mystique (of the name) and the nuance (of the wine). Curvaceous, layered, youthful but with longevity this is a bottle of vinous dynamite!

Enjoying this along with another 2010 pairing from Ayoub (Murto Vineyard). Lighter of the two (but still amazing) Hints of pepper and black currant. Smooth.
