Bright and clear garnet. Abundant nose of black cherry and red licorice. Medium-bodied palate of black cherry, black tea, and a hint of vanilla. Medium acidity. Medium tannins. Very much like a young, less austere Burgundy. Not surprising as winemaker Laurent Montalieu is a Burgundian himself. Nice and juicy now, but this should show some development with time. Drink now through 2024.

Really really young, but give it til the second glass and it's really good actually. The nose starts with lots of earth and dark spice, but that blows off and you're left with ripe cherry, cranberry, and a touch of tobacco.. The palate gets really smooth as it airs out.. It just needs some time and babying. Great entry-level Oregon Pinot though and has a pretty plush mouthfeel for being $15!

From Jenn: Oregon wine doesn't have SHIT on NAPA Valley. I'm still waiting for the flavor to kick in... I drank the whole bottle and think this is WATER. I want my money back. This is bill shit!

Light Ruby with a nose of red berry fruit and noticeable alcohol. The wine is thin, light in body, with oak overshadowing the fruit and an alcohol burn, out of balance. I have not found any private label wine really worth drinking. Beware when you enter big box wine shops loaded with private label stuff. Tasting Sample.

I mean, it's fine. I wouldn't go out of my way, though.
