Still tightly wound and youthful, but sooo promising. Tart red berries and sun drenched raspberries, spicy minerals and faint vegetal notes bring complexity to this understated style of wine. Structured for the long haul. 93+

Pinot Noir grafted on Cabernet Sauvignon rootstock. Meaty, but very polished, with a solid core of pomegranate and black cherry fruit. Fewer than 2,000 bottles produced.

Really pretty but had some va and a bit of a predictable natural wine taste (though that is not a bad thing). The elegance of these pinots is pretty rare in the new world

Magical. Violets on the nose. Juicy and vegetal. Very correct, alive and lifted.
