Blackberry, cassis, violet, mocha, eucalyptus, oak and hints of mossy earth. Great structure and well-integrated tannins.

Cheery, raspberry, dusty leather and oak. Good structure and nice acidity.

Cherry, mushrooms, wet leaves, forest floor, autumnal. More body than expected, while still retaining good acidity. Wonderful to see that WNY terroir shining through! @Jonathan Oakes killing it.

Baking spice, cherry, earth, and an elegant silky texture. An incredible New York State Pinot. Paired with Moroccan-spiced chicken thighs, and this echoed the flavors beautifully.

Slaying. Beautiful color, earth and wet leaves upon opening, cherries and spice showing off a couple hours in. 11.6 abv, acid still going strong. Need more. Thank you, @Jonathan Oakes !
