Light color, Wonderful nose with berry and floral scents swirling in the glass. Fresh fruit flavors, muted raspberry and sweet cherry, hints of pepper spice, great balance with acidity. Soft tannins, lingering finish ending with toasty cedar tones and a nudge of pepper. An enjoyable Pinot, has short term aging benefits, but best now.

Yummy Pinot. It opened with intriguing, vibrant spicy red and blue berries notes that expanded from the mid palet to your back cheeks. Nice subtle tannins on the finish.

Nice earthy rich Pinot with spicy edge. Complex and a savory finish for nearly a minute.

Red fruit, strawberry jolly rancher, cherry, some earthy smokiness. Medium plus acidity, medium body, mild plus tannins. Hints of oak. Excellent Pinot.

Excellent. Balanced and complex. Rich for a pinot. Raspberries and strawberries are complemented by espresso, smoke, forest floor and caramel. Medium long finish of caramel and Graham crackers. Definitely age worthy.

Spice and Earth driven. Lots of tension and age worthy structure. The fresh berried fruits take a back seat through the finish alongside mellow notes of espresso and roasted green tea.
Another 5 years will do this wine A lot of good.
