Elegant and refined with an Invinting approach that is developing into a deep varietal complexity. Great balance and presence on the palate with a ripe and juicy, yet vibrant fruit profile is driven by a synchronized harmony between the fine but very present tannins and a vibrant acidity throughout the long finish.

Very very young, showing stemmy tannins with a fair bit of grip...underripe red cranberry and raspberry fruits. Will be quite a wine later on in its life, loads of potential.

Very light, crisp and acid driven. Tannins pull on the mid palate and finish. Red fruit is subdued. 12.8% abv

Bright, should have held for a few more years before drinking, but still delicious. Bright unripe cherry, cranberry, fresh strawberry. Yum.

Raspberry, cranberry, muted fruit. Nice with salmon. Could use a little more aging

Lots of cherry and a long acid finish. Medium to light bodied Pinot.

Fresh right out of the bottle with nice minerality. Not much fruit or depth at this stage but has potential. A well crafted simple Pinot that should improve over time.

Silky while maintaining structure. Much Gravitas for a Pinot which is N California = Ted Lemon. 👏🏼
