Great qpr on this. Looks right, smells right, and tastes like quality Pinot. Hints of red cherry but deep acidity, earthy notes, and good balance rising all in.

Light color, medium body, pungent first taste, but once aired it becomes easier to drink, pairs well with goat cheese.

One of the lightest in color PN I can remember having. Wine was awesome. Baking spices and warm cherry pie.
