Very concentrated yet focused. Opened up nicely. Represents a nice Pinot at the riper end of the spectrum with balance.

Subdued warm dark fruit notes on the nose with good herbaceious qualities and body. The wine is still young here and should probably age.

Last bottle find. Great pedigree. Agree with others. Rich, darker red fruits, spice, leather. Nice drink.

Sunday night stab with my buddy Coravin. Great balance and density. Black fruit, cola reduction, and tobacco dust. Nice and rich. $40 on Last Bottle. Really nice Pinot 👍

A tangy and blue nose. A pretty simple mid palate with ripe cherry. A bit abrupt on the finish.
