If you're looking for an out of body experience in a PN then this isn't it. If you're looking for 1er Cru Burgundy on a Budweiser budget this is also not it. What you will find is a great example of Chilean Pinot Noir for $11. Keep that price tag in mind because most Cali PN's in this price range can't compare. But also keep in mind that this entirely a Chilean PN. Light in color, smoky cherry notes and well rounded body. I'm not getting any sweet fruit like a few reviewers are saying, but to each their own. Yes dark smoky, unripened cherries, but nothing sweet. Smooth finish that dissipates quickly but it is a nice even transition. Medium tannins. Just a well put together PN that won't break the bank and will hopefully encourage you to explore more Pinot Noir from Chile and compare the different characteristics from around the world.

Normally not a fan of the minerally finish of Chilean reds, but this one’s lovely.

Sweet cherry nose with ever so slight funk. Very light, pleasant, natural wine reasonably priced but nothing to write home about.

2013. Tastes of pine, but not in a good way. Wholefoods. Just say no.
