Tasted blind and got humbled. I called Oregon Pinot. I just got zero notes of earth or other Burgundian notes until and hour in. Delicious wine!

Love the producer. Typical Burgundian notes but had a nice finessed approach as should be expected.

2015 - so much power and weight but oh so light on its feet

More on the earthy side. A little cherry and kirsch peeking through. Elegant but powerful with some dry tannins.

call me a whore. 2009 reds are freakn juicy and delicious. although this wine was probably more in balance with that lively smooth volnay mouth feel. great bottle.

Big, perhaps a bit slutty at the moment- fruit is up front and dominant, almost a new world esque nose.

Very developed color for "only" being 10 years old.
Light, fruity and pleasant on the palate but it doesn't have the structure to make it cellar-worthy.
Drink up (fast).

Needed a decant. Slow to open, but tasty with time.
