This was a lovely Pinot but needed many more hours of being opened. In the style of Cali Pinots like Sea Smoke or DC but I would love to see how this will be drinking in another 5 years or so. First time having this producer but won't be the last!

Dried red currant and pipe tobacco. Mid body, mid+ acidity and alcohol. Nice age.

Really floral (it reminds me of roses and violets) and a lot of plum. This wine is delicious!

Rather uninspiring but not overly disappointing. Not very full bodied. Very drinkable. Good for pre-dinner cocktail.

A little young, but wonderful flavor! Leather notes with a bright fruity pallet. Light oak.
