This is so good. Big fruit, but balanced with earth, game, purple flowers, tannin, plums, some white pepper. Highly recommend — 12 hours ago

This is so good and complex. After an hour it opened up. Good acidity. Tropical, saline, stone fruit. So lovely. Turning into one of my favorite Sicilian wineries — 9 days ago

This needed 2 hours of to open. Initially it was kind of brawny and weird. Now after 4 hours it’s hitting its stride. So much going on the nose. Red cherry, strawberry preserves, fresh herbs, interestingly curry. Palate is bonkers. Coats the entire palate immediately. I get strawberries, grapes!, flowers, green herbs, more curry, some vanilla, baking spice at the end with cherries. What I love about this is it tastes like a full meal. Bright fruits and acidity (sea water?) at the start, herbs, spice, darker fruits, umami in the middle, and then cherries jubilee, spice, and vanilla at the end. One of the most interesting Pinots I’ve ever had. I feel if I tasted it blind I would immediately guess Germany Pinot or red, but who knows. Would love to get more. — 14 days ago

What beautiful white wine. The nose is peaches, ocean, sage, grass, like hiking in a field in summer. Palate is mineral driven with good acidity. More stone fruit, sea salt, some more greenery. I love it. Better after 90 minutes of air and closer to cellar temp — 13 days ago

This was very well balanced. The nose was beautiful with flowers and tropical fruit. Great mouthfeel and not sweet tasting. It was perfect on a hot humid day. — 21 days ago

Heading towards more secondary flavors but very good. Baked bread, challah, caramel green apple, bit of marzipan, hint of lemon zest, there’s also a spring rain and floral component. It’s like being in a bakery during a summer thunderstorm. Love it. — 5 days ago

What a great wine. Dried flowers, dust, cranberries, tannic tea, blackberry. Good amount of tannin and tartness, great with food. Cuts through the fat. Impressed — 11 days ago
