After an hour I completely forgot it was central coast pinot. Transported me elsewhere. Fantastic value.

Great concentration with ripe red cherries, cranberries, earth and cinnamon. Great for the price point!

Strong cherry fruit, with a bit of earth and vanilla. It also has moderate acidity and even more moderate tannin. I think it would be very versatile with food. I liked it and it made me smile to drink it, and I thought it was an interesting wine. It's not a really deep wine but it's a really good value at the price.

I've been drinking a diff Pinot noir nightly but at a lower cost this might be the next new one for me. Light, crisp, and w low tannins. Refreshing on these spring days.
