March 21, 2020 - A bit translucent yet still cloudy in the glass with aromas of cherry, earth, and just a trace of spice. The palate is quite amazingly fruity, stopping just short of "amazingly-so." The palate is a delight: fresh cherry, hints of spice, and a zesty tartness that persists through the finish. Yowza. thedrunkencyclist.com

September 20, 2016 - An interesting low(er) alcohol (13.9% ABV) RRV pinot, showing a great deal of acidity but maintaining some purity of fruit and a touch of mineral.
Well integrated tannins.
Smooth and easy to drink.

December 6, 2015 - Perhaps I underestimated this wine on release. It's showing delightful baked cherry, spice, rhubarb, cola, and a touch of mineral. Moderate plus length. It's RRV, but not over the top. Really at a nice spot right now though held a glass overnight and it was going strong the next day, so certainly no rush.
