Very pure, ripe cherry fruit, with some clean crushed stone minerality on the nose. The palate is round and nicely ripe, with stone-infused dense cherry fruit, but in a lithe frame with nice acids. Great with bacon mac ‘n cheese!

Very elegant, not super aromatic at first but opens up. Austere but not too abrasive and has really nice both ripe and underripe sweet cherry, hints of baking spices, persistent minerality. Would definitely buy again at $35

Very nice easy drinking Pinot noir. It reminds me of Oregon Pinot in a lean year. Good solid fruit with a complex mouthfeel of herbs, minerals, and tannin. Very nice but not something I’d seek out again for 28 bucks.
