2019 vintage and the best I’ve tasted from non-estate Roar. Don’t even think about drinking this without at least a 4 hour decant. Came together on day 2 and was still singing on day 3. This is a roaring Pinot that pulls no punches. Gorgeous and well integrated. Ripe dark fruit flavor and nicely acidic. Cheers!

This deserves more than a 9.0, really really well balanced while having a fruit forward and balanced acid profile. Drinks super easily straight after decorking (2019, drank in 2022)
