A number of elements need to conspire in order for great pinot to be made, many of them out of our control. If pinot was ever going to be in safe hands, it’s with Tom Carson. He’s the pinot maestro with the skill, passion, obsession and intuition to know exactly how to gently guide this most precious grape from vineyard to bottle.

Tasting Notes
Tomatoes, cherries and fresh mint. A bit young and timid at the moment. Delicate, fragrant. Given time, looks like it should become a beautiful butterfly, just not yet. Juicy, spicy and structured, just a touch of green. Good length and power, with potential development in the mid-palate. An thought-provoking wine all-around.
