Very delicious Pinot, but was expecting a little more complexity. Wonderful pairing with salmon.

2017 vintage. Very fragrant. Hibiscus, red plum, pomegranate, fresh cherry, tree bark, strong rooibos tea note, wet rocks, rose petals. Good length.

2015-super aromatic, ripe red fruits but nicely balanced and asking to finish the bottle.

A brilliant clarity of expression. A velvety softness envelopes a wiry skeleton. This shit tastes good. It'll get better.

Quite reductive. Very focused red fruits, crunchy and tart. Meaty, smoky, mineral aromas. Excellent tannic grip and tension on the palate. There’s an almost feral character that I’m liking. Good value in a somewhat unusual category.
