The 2019 Pinot Noir Quarter Moon Vineyard, medium ruby in color, has a deep well of aromas: spiced cranberry sauce, dried tangerine peel, woodsmoke, aniseed and iron, gaining more nuance with air. The medium-bodied palate is grainy and fresh with intense, perfectly ripe fruits and a flourish of spices on the long finish. It's young and will benefit from another 2-3 years in bottle.

The 2018 Pinot Noir Quarter Moon Vineyard, aged 14 months in 50% new French oak, has a medium ruby-purple color and gorgeous scents of crushed blueberries, blood orange, tea leaves, aniseed and loads of amaro-laced red and black berry fruits, bursting with more nuances over time. It's medium-bodied and wonderfully silky and fresh, packed to the gills with spicy flavor layers gently supported by ripe tannins, and it finishes incredibly long and layered. Gorgeous! 2,200 cases were made.

The 2017 Pinot Noir Quarter Moon Vineyard aged for 13 months in 48% new French oak. Medium ruby-purple in color, it's a little closed from its bottling last week but opens to very pretty notes of roses, tangerine peel, potpourri and perfumed earth over a core of ripe black cherries and berries with warm blueberry hints. Medium-bodied and silky textured with a great array of flavors opening in the mouth—warm cinnamon, clove, flowers—it has soft, grainy tannins and a long, juicy finish. 2,400 cases produced.

Medium ruby-purple colored, the 2016 Pinot Noir Quarter Moon Vineyard is a little reticent to begin, displaying subtle notes of pomegranate, Bing cherries and mulberries with wafts of potpourri, dried Provence herbs, cassia, allspice and dusty soil. Medium-bodied with firm, grainy tannins and a lively line of acid framing the intense red berry and spicy layers, it finishes on a lingering mineral note. 1,985 cases produced.
