The smoothness is unbelievable. One of the best Pinot Noir s I've had.

A smooth, mellow tasting red. Mild dark cherries and a hint of cocoa. Not terribly rich or complex. Solid, but not extraordinary

Great value for a smooth drinking Pinot with hints of fruit and cocoa. Hard to beat at this price.

Ruby with red fruit aromas and heavy aromatic spice notes. On the palate tart berry flavors with herb notes. Tannins were grainy, high acidity with smoky notes on its medium finish and ending harsh. Pass. Tasting Sample.

Medium bodied oaky blackberry, smoke, and notes of baking spice. Just a touch sharp for me but might mellow.

This was a good Pinot. Cherries, spice, and butter are our notes. Paired well with a white chicken chili
