Sell so much of this, it's good. But not in a traditional way. Very extracted for Pinot. It's a cab drinkers pinot.

Spice, berry, richness. Love this "blend" of Vineyards for a tasty Pinot.

I have had Meiomi before but an earlier vintage like 2010. It made me turn my head at a good QPR that I new I would come back for more. The nose opens up wit bright red fruit, strawberry, red raspberry, there is a sweet spice not and a light smokey campfire note. On the palate there is lots of big red fruit that comes forward. Sweet strawberry, savory red raspberry, wonderful smooth creamy mouth feel with vanilla and a nice acidity. There is a good long finish with spice right at the end. For $17 bones the QPR is right on.

Tortured by stewy, overripe fruit. Couldn't finish this 375 ml on a 6 hr flight!

A red wine in Pinot's clothing. Not quite my speed but crowds always enjoy.

First airplane wine I actually enjoyed. Love Belle Glos and Meiomi is such a nice entry level Pinot.

7.5. Black cherry. Smooth finish. Not much all spice. Full body Pinot.
