Whoa. I didn't expect this from a Pinot. Almost Zin-like in its kick-you-in-the-mouth fruitiness. Turns out I love that.

Carneros is one of my favorite places for Pinot Noir especially when the wine represents it's distinct terroir. When I think Carneros I think bright acidity with an elegant round finish and this bottle pretty much nails it. Worth 30 bucks, could handle hearty meals even a steak

Very pleasant and balanced pinot, hints of strawberry.

Awesome wine. Lots of tannins but very smooth and not heavy at all :)

A rock, with notes of cinnamon to finish. Good with dinner or by itself.
