Jan 19th, 2018Darkest Pinot I have ever encountered, intense, extremely tannic, very big and concentrated. Surprisingly Nebbiolo like, but very good, I bet Nebbiolo would do well at this vyd!

Sep 26th, 2015Opened in honor of Josh Jenson. Unfortunately this one was very ripe, almost port-like, with a distinct alcohol burn.
