Nose - forest floor, wood, tobacco, moss. Main flavors - stewed plum and light baking spices. A bit of tannic structure but overall smooth and earthy. Like no Pinot noir I’ve ever had. Tremendous! Read the James Suckling review and he has it right it’s moody. But I think moody in the best possible way. — 16 days ago
Winemaker dinner at Nari. Fabulous and if not tied for WOTN it might win in some cases. — 17 days ago
Still kickin’. Nose: Cherry tobacco, exquisite, raisins. Palate: low tannins, long finish, hints of plum. No decanting needed. Drink now. — 6 days ago
Winemaker dinner at Nari. This was clearly young and tasted next to the 2011 missing the depth of maturity — 17 days ago

Medium light ruby , quite wide garnet ruby rim . Touch of pot pouri , with some spiced cherry , wild strawberry and raspberry . Sweet red cherry notes on the palate , some light herbal notes and a saline streak . Touch of black pepper and perhaps a hint of warmth . Ok length and balance . Not as fresh as some of the others. Drink now and over the next few years . Vinous Icons NY , Pier 60, Feb 2025 — 17 days ago
