Good but so dense and extracted. Tasted more like Syrah than Pinot.

Drinking well right now. Raspberry, something herbal/medicinal, good balance of acid and tannin.

Drinking really great right now. Everything well integrated, flavors of cherry and raspberry that start off almost candies and gain weight with air, silky smooth. Just a hint of orange around the rim. Drink now or hold a few more years.

Still lots of oak that needs to be integrated. Curious if fruit will last long enough.

Very solid. Lots of cherry fruit. Big and less Burgundian than I expected. Still fun.

Family Farm is not my favorite. Herbal and high acid.
