The nose on this is gorgeous. There’s a lightness of bread, honeysuckle, and rain. Then I also get a red wine like smell of cherries and currants. Palate is impressive and leans more toward oak and red wine. Forest for sure, really interesting fruit with apple, hint of tropical fruit, some cantaloupe, sourdough toast, and cherries jubilee. I’m not sure I’m doing it justice in describing. It just keeps evolving. Seems to punch well over its weight class. Hope I can secure another bottle or two.

First wine of the BYOB blind tasting. This was excellent. Very few called Pinot. Dark, bigger frame that had perfect tension and balance. — 10 months ago
Crisp and slightly juicy. Slight acidity, but not a ton. — a year ago
Their 1st vintage. Excellent and at its peak. Drink up. Very Burgundian. Dark cherries, touch blackberry, cardamom, bark, black tea, orange zest, crushed marble, In my book one of the best they made since inception of this Jadot Oregon outfit. — a year ago
