Jan 21st, 2020Poured straight into the decanter and enjoyed over an hour with dinner. On the dark end for Pinot; the color, an honest resemblance. Savory nose of herbs and stewed meat, with an overtone of cherry preserves or cola, depending how much you swirl. Palette is expansive and deeply integrated, bringing the same elements of the nose to life. This wine can be dusty and earthy, or bright and fruity. It’s like a chameleon. There’s a lot to enjoy along the lengthy finish. Age has treated this well so far!

May 15th, 2018A lush nose of plummy fruit. Quality fruit here. Intense, but a little simple and hot on the finish.

Jul 4th, 2016I love the cabs Sean makes for O'shaughnessy so I was excited to try one of his Pinots. Everything I hoped for. Big and rich with the perfect amount of acidity.
