2016 vintage. Last tasted 5.4.24 (9.6) and 2.10.23 (9.6). Decanted and tasted after 45 minutes. Still kicking serious assets and ignoring names. Such a woofer. Arrive with respects or leave on a stretcher. Your choice. 3.27.26 — 4 days ago

2021 vintage. Quadruple decanted since the blender method wasn't an option. Seemed unfined and unfiltered with some überfine, powdery sediment. Chunky. Rustic. Tasted after 15 minutes, 1.25 hours and 3 hours. Some definite beauty and the beast moments. First time with this producer but would tackle again. 3.27.26. — 4 days ago

2021 vintage. PNP. Initially fleshy. Started to thin out slightly after 45 minutes open with a welcomed thread of astringent accompaniments. Only Pinot I've had in 35 years from the Sanford and Benedict Vineyard that was more focused on the fruit aspects vs the spice/structure/tannins. 3.28.26. — 3 days ago
