Lots of red berries and cherries on the nose. Still quite primary and all about the fruit, with good acidity and ripe berries on the palate. Missing a bit non-fruit flavors, it’s a bit straightforward right now. Still a well made CA Pinot.

Consistently good, holding up well with time in the bottle, and still has time to develop more, but very quaffable now if you still want good fruit. The nose has some umami, damp wood, wet leaves from morning dew, and white pepper. The palate oozes with raspberries, raspberry seeds and tart pomegranate. Tannins are almost gone, but acidity is still present. Good stuff. Holds up after 3 days.

Good, but this vineyard improved with later vintages. Perhaps the improvement is a testament to JPV's vineyard management and winemaking skills.
