Earthy, sweet, and a bit fruity nose. Wine goes down great. Smooth, berry fruit on the palate, a bit of spice too. Finish is pleasant, does not linger. I like this Pinot for the price. I paired it with salmon and white beans, and it tasted amazing.

Good bottle when you're missing the typical Cali Pinot. Ripe fruit, balanced alcohol and acidity. Missing the subtleties of a more delicate Pinot Noir. A little woodsy, sage, and blackberry on the nose. Spicy on the palate, full-bodied, still balanced, nice tannin.

Pretty strong flavor. Not as smooth as I'd expect but not bad after the first couple sips
