Very tight and restrained must have some whole cluster grapes in this . A little rustic and green , like the idea here just needs a little more intensity of fruit to pull it off .

Given some time to open up this is beautiful. Dark fruits soft and great finish. Obviously the bottle disappeared way to soon. Loved it.

Earthy, herbal, and somewhat stemmy. Coarsely structured without being rustic. Old world class.

Cloudy in the glass, light on the nose and lips with cherry and violet notes. 12.5-- smooth as a baby's butt. Pure silk, no noticeable tannins or acidity, yet you know they're there. An absolute pleasure to share with only your best friends.

Lively, bright, and youthful Pinot. Light on its feet, low alcohol, light cherry color driven by the tension between strawberry aromas and acidity. Absolutely no cherry-cola notes, toasty oak or over-ripe full cluster bitterness. This is a delightful alternative to the usual California suspects.
