A strong prune and blueberry aroma with hints of a sweet herb. Blueberry follows through into the first taste and it lingers to the finish. There’s a balanced acidity that reminds me of lemonade. That herb note comes through as basil on the mid palate. The tannins give me an impression of ruby red grapefruit. Overall a very nice sparkling red! — 2 months ago
Melon on the nose. Mineral flavors with a nice smooth body. Low acid but the hints of lime dance around. Pretty nice! — 4 months ago
Lime like aroma. Honeydew upfront with a limeade finish. Simple, bright profile with some ginger on the finish. — a month ago
Woah this one is interesting… I get a raspberry jelly donut aroma. Upfront I’m tasting a strawberry starburst. Acidity reminds me of a sour watermelon candy. Juicy, sweet but still very tart. Love this wine. — 2 months ago

Color on this one is ruby red and pretty opaque. Super long legs that slowly drip down the glass for minutes after swirling. Tart cherry aroma with a faint impression of rosemary tucked away in the background. On the first sip I get lots of fresh herbs…rosemary, thyme, basil…but it very quickly passes into tart tropical fruits. Both of the notes together come together for a nice acid pineapple flavor. The body starts of velvety and transforms into some nice drying tannins. The finish is like spicy ginger and pleasantly burns down to the pit of my stomach. A fantastic wine, hope to grab another bottle of this someday. — 2 months ago
Sweeter aroma compared to the 2016 - find more hints vanilla, cherry and candied orange. Flavors are much more subtle too. Orange is big in the flavor and the tannins are closer to a dark chocolate/cocoa powder impression. Cherry comes back into the finish. — 2 months ago
Dominant fresh blackberry aroma with hints of clove. Very tannic upfront with a mild grapefruit note. Red berries follow up on the finish. Thick bodied with a tart finish. Wishing there was more structure to the different flavors, but still delicious — 5 months ago

Long and slow legs with a iridescent maroon color. Huge bouquet on the nose with a tiny hint of cardamom. I will admit that I was cutting garlic so the florals might have been more dramatic ha! Burst of juiciness upfront that tapers into a tea-like body with the perfect amount of dryness on the finish. Prominent tasting notes I get are strawberry and wildflower honey. Honey stays on the finish with a mild heat that dissipates pretty quickly. One of the better Pinots I’ve had in quite some time! — a month ago
