Cost effective! Not complex, just easy to drink and got better with 30 minutes of air.

I have had several $60-$75 Pinots and I found this wine to be a great alternative. Opens fast and has a great nose and finish. Had it with a Brown Butter Orecchiette pasta. Save your money and give this a try.

Nice balance. Smoky is not the right word, but something like that. Toasty maybe.
