Big storm and power just went out at 3 in the afternoon. Breaks my heart to put work aside and open this!
Almost have it 93. The nose is great. Violets, strawberry, and burnt orange peel. Palate is fun too. Slightly reductive, cherry, strawberry, salinity, and minerality.
I purchased this at North Loop Wine / Spirits in Minneapolis. Check out this shop if you haven’t/can. Great selection! Very helpful staff as well. I asked for the best Pinot under $60 and he passed quite a few easy names to give me this. So glad he did! They have a great selection of high end stuff, maybe best in MN?

Not quite as good as I remember this the last time I had it. There was more of a smoky element that wasn’t there before and it seemed that the fruit wasn’t quite as bright. Still, this was a very nice wine and wish I had more of it. — 4 years ago

Nose has (light) old rubber band, dehydrated Bing cherry, oak bark with some alcohol heat.

Palate has dried cherry steeped in black tea, sous-bois and (light) vinyl notes or maybe some vegetal green pepper. Generally not impressed by this palate, little improvement since our prior bottle, lacking concentration. — 4 years ago

Super smoky in the nose and the tongue. Nice acidity. Cherry and red fruit notes with some vegetable and oregano. A very interesting wine that drinks like heavily smoke ribs. Like licking yesterday’s campfire. The most distinct, complex wine I’ve had this year. Not a daily drinker, but light enough in body and alcohol that all the smokiness still has a lighter finesse. — 4 years ago

A whiff of butterscotch, band aid, complex red fruit with dried herbs. On the palate very savory and delicious fruit. Soured cherry with a pure forest floor blackberry and leather midpalate. Very good. — 5 years ago
