2013. Delicious. Enters like a Chard, has a Pinot Noir nose with delicate tropical fruit notes.

This is truly a fun & unique wine but pretty pricey IMHO. Thankfully my wife loves me and got us a bottle.

I was very curious about this wine and it delivers. Red wine characteristics with some white wine flavor. Skeptics must try!

Appreciate the experimentation, but this wine shows why Pinot noir deserves to be red.

Textural and creamy. Balanced and subtle with notes of pineapple, lemon peel, apple, and pear. Nice acidity. Something to try, but not worth the price to buy for regular drinking.

I got a case before the price shot up. QPR penalty at $60. Very soft, luxurious, good balance and acidity.

This is great stuff.... I'm buying it from now on. It's a little round, great acidity, and very complex

Heavy oak and full bodied with flavors of vanilla and melon.
