Isolated in the basement with Covid, so I thought I’d crack into this and pour it into a glass. Well, wouldn’t ya know - tastes a bit better in a can?! There are some ok aromatics here, but why other when you can drop it into aluminum and be done? They’re unrecognizable anyway, just muddled ripe fruit. Tastes of cherries and moss, but not earth shattering. Thanks for entertaining me in my boredom.

Fruit forward nice bitter tannins on the finish with a hint of spice, lightly oaked. Cool climate Pinot Noir is the new Black....

Who knew Frank made wine? Nice medium Pinot with berry flavours. Maybe a little lacking in body but soft tannins and good fruit make up for that.

Terrible nose-Berries and mud. It might taste better if the smell weren't so off putting. Thin and watery. Unbalanced and tastes off, Like overripe berries. Sort of zippy. Not a good example of a pino, but gets a little better if decanted.

Cola, cherries, spice. A pretty basic Pinot, but is a classic Oregon Pinot Noir. Which says a lot since its $6.99 per 375ml can.

Cherry, ground cloves and heavy mushrooms on the palette. Decent Pinot for the price point.

No glass at the pool! The whites seem to adapt better to the can. I forgot I was drinking wine. Spiked ocean spray cranberry juice. ... I liked it and will do it again!

Very simple, but very drinkable! Ripe red berry fruit, a touch of earth. Decently acidic, little to no tannin. Light bodied. I won’t hesitate to bring this to a casual picnic or house party if the need arises.
