In top 3 of michigan Pinots. Brooding semi-smoky cherry up front but man, this just becomes a killer acid-driven gem. Not layered, but rather feels precise in mild mushroom earthiness, tart cherry, secondary clove. These guys and Bel Lago are serious players. I'd like to see the price go down, but I doubt that will happen.

An absolute stunner of what the OMP is capable of delivering given enough time and patience. The harshness of youth washes away and reveals this interwoven fabric of forest floor, dark cherry, and acidity to balance the dance. Not as multilayered as other regions, but a perfect example of Brys in all its glory.
