It took a short while to get rid of the initial burned rubber kind of smell, but once it did it was a beautiful Pinot Noir. Elegant.

Nose of California Pinot with the color of cherry juice.

Cherry flavors. Slightly peppery, in a good way.

I really wanted to give this a stellar score but my taste buds + olfactory senses just weren't taken to that transcendental level of Pinot righteousness! Could of been the vintage/ location, drought/weather effects.

Wants to be Burgundy so bad but it’s still decidedly Cali. Good value! Tasty! It is a strong medium good wine. Some cherry cough drop notes that I felt unsure about. I wouldn’t not drink it.
