California Pinot Noir
California, USA
Bright ruby in color with medium intensity and a reddish rim.
Fruity on the nose with red candy, blueberries, sweet bing cherries, wood, light vanilla, licorice, spices, earth, peppercorn and leather.
Medium-bodied and soft, with medium acidity and nice legs.
Dry and fruity on the palate with blueberries, cherries, plums, strawberries, earth, oak, vegetables, licorice, light vanilla, metals, red candy, spices and black pepper.
Nice length on the finish with firm tannins and cherries.
This Californian Pinot Noir is nice, and that is surprising, at this price point.
Light and engaging, with a nice quick grip. Balanced and simple, with a velvety mouthfeel, and a unique tannic feel, for a Pinot Noir.
Enjoyable by itself or with food, and a good party wine as well.
12.5% alcohol by volume.

A little different but a nice alternative. Not heavy with a bit of fruit(?)

A bit hot and alcohol forward. Prefer chilled slightly. Highly tannic with strong eucalyptus and mint notes. Overall a light, dry and zippy Pinot. Lacks complexity and balance.

Not bad. Nothing special. Not as complex as other Pinot Noirs, but still fruit filled and pleasing

A bit on the drier side of Pinots, but not too bad
