It's like Burgundy with brambly Zinfandel fruit

Amazing Burgundy monopole for under $20. Very hard to complain.

Definitely a French Pinot with California sensibilities..... red fruits that are zin-like in their extraction. It does come together though.

Very balanced wine. Great for a table or seducing your not too wine educated Tinder date. Distinctive red fruit on the nose with a bit of smoke and very usual for Burgundy Pinot Noir an aroma of freshly printed glossy paper. Yes, really. Med tannins, not too wild acidity and a bit of minerals dance well together and make the wine very balanced. My palate wants to say: "Boy, is that a wild cherry or unripe plum?"

Good nose of more black fruits relative to others and a touch of earthiness. Great body and balance and earth and long finish. JL private tasting 9/22/16. $35. Best value of the group.

A touch wild and unrefined but overall solid burgundy.
