A good starter wine used to lead too complex Cabernets. It lacked complexity but overall a good drinking wine.

A very well balanced Pinot with wonderful berry notes and a great smoothness on the middle and backend.

Solid choice for #PinotNoir. Varietally correct yet exceeds expectations.

Medium density in the glass. Nose has aromas of damp earth, moist strawberries and some mushroom. Palate has volume. A little large and round. More strawberry, mild tannin but still retaining good structure.

Opened 2/6/16
