Sour raspberry, red cherry, fresh rose, a hint of white pepper and a touch of oak. Juicy, easy drinking with mellow tannins and bright acidity. Fun to drink, thanks @Emma Thomas

Michigan is much more on top of their whites, but this Pinot shows some promise. A bit more fruit forward than I like, but that's personal preference.

Ripe raspberry and cherry up front. Very bright ruby color. Balanced structure. Overall, a very tasty Pinot that lines up well against other fruit forward / acid driven Pinots.

There's a bit of raspberry and spice in there, but otherwise fairly bland IMHO
