    April 6, 2024 - Very fruity at the beginning. Better and better balance by the hour. Really nice after 3 hrs. Nose: Very good 8/10. Palate: 9/10. Medium-full bodied. Lively. Finish: 8/10. Price: 9/10 ($84 2023). Enjoyment: 10/10. Would buy again: Probably. Drinking nicely.

    December 24, 2023 - After an hour in the glass this has yet to reveal itself. A very large wine and far denser than the 2014 Southing I had recently. This is a full bodied pinot that should continue to drink well for 5 plus years. Prominent cherry fruit flavors reminds the taster that this is no doubt new world. I had the 2013 Ten last week and found that to be slightly better overall, especially the balance. This is in or near its prime.

    November 23, 2023 - Still drinking very well. Enjoyed with the turkey ham and a variety of Thanksgiving vegetables. Seemingly less fruit than in earlier years
    The wine looks crimson colored. The legs are medium. There was no sediment in the bottle.

    April 14, 2023 - Decanted >2 hours. Last tasted in 2020 and thought the wine was in a good drinking spot. 3 years later and this is still fresh and delicious. A well made wine that probably can cellar longer but I feel this is in a good spot and will not get better with more time. It may stay the same but I like freshness in my PN.
