Fresh and lively acidity, nice texture, good cherry soul.

The oldest vintage of this wine that we have, it's drinking very well. Terrific nose of candied strawberries, maybe some sour cherry on the edge (surprisingly reminiscent of something out of the Williamette Valley). Medium-plus bodied on the palate with nice balance. Great way to welcome Gavin back for a visit!

As it opens up, it takes on licorice notes. It is quite nice!

Drinking beautifully, this is their regular pinot that outpaces a number of "reserve" offerings from other wineries. Was a bit fruit-forward a couple of years ago, but has really integrated over the past two years.

Wonderfully balanced even with a big mouth feel, and even at 14.6 ABV, it's not hot. Drinks like a mid 13% wine.
