Mar 20th, 2023Really impressive. Decanted for half an hour and this was ready to go. Relatively bold in style with crushed raspberry, blackberry, and black cherry on top of earth and finely tuned tannins. Personally would’ve liked more restrained oak use but at the end of the day it’s hard to put this down. A delicious Pinot with aging potential.

Jun 26th, 2016Transparent ruby in the glass with red fruit, violets and earthy aromas. Tart red fruit flavored, earth, sweet tea and drying tannins. Nice acidity. Decant and give this wine time in the glass. You will be rewarded. Enjoy with salmon, roasted chicken, pork or veal.
