Too rich for my blood. Very fruit forward. Lots of Black cherry, cocoa, candied red fruit. @June's All Day, Austin TX

Bright red cherry, floral, decent acidity to balance it out. Missed the touch of funk or earth that Pinot needs to be more interesting

Basic Pinot from all from Estate grapes...really good table wine for daily quaffing. Likely better served slightly chilled.

Acidity is murderous. Not my type of pinot.

Funky barnyard and leather on the bouquet, a little thin on the mid palate, but still a lot of depth of flavor if not body.

Great nose to it, but fell off on the palate. Preferred the Salem from Oregon that this company makes. Owned by Moorman and Parr.

Cherry fruit nose with some earthiness. Good acidity, lower alcohol level, leaner style CA Pinot.
