The mighty Pisoni Vineyard produces some very compelling Pinot Noir. It’s hard to pick it early because the signature of the site seems to develop later. I liked it. Not to take any of the winemaking for granted it seemed fully ripe but had an acid tang I was surprised by. More time in bottle might grind that down. I’d dance to it — 5 months ago

2022 vintage. Medium/medium heavy body. Nice, initial draw and mid-palate kaleidoscope but a shunted finish. Started off nearly identical to the 2022 Gary's Vineyard same producer/vintage but lacking the epic, back end, guitar solo outro. Brand new so would like to retaste in 8-12 months. We all know how fickle the pinot noir grape can be. 04.02.25. — 3 months ago
