I've always like this #wine for its simplicity and purity of the varietal for the price. Aromas of soft wet soil, eucalyptus, strawberry. Delicate, clear colors with strawberry, cranberry flavor. Sharp, fresh acidity. Opened 1/14/17

Very soft and light with some strawberry and cranberry fruits. Touch of earthy tobacco there as well. Good standard pinot from burgundy, but not too interesting.

Nov 2nd, 2024Very balanced wine for Bugundy. Part of a joint offer and very good surpride. Perfect on a grilled pork meal

Feb 7th, 2021Not a huge Pinot Noir fan and not that educated on it, but this was quite nice. Bright fruit and subtle spice. Paired nicely with goose cassoulet. Medium depth.
