My wife picked this up at Sams Club, (where everything is 50% off before they close the Milwaukee stores.) The label says, "Located on Monterey's pacific coast where the cool fog sweeps in each evening". As a soldier once stationed at Fort Ord, I can attest to the coastal fog part. This wine has great berry flavors, mild acidity, and a semi dry finish. A very enjoyable taste at a bargain price. Pairs well with beef tenderloin.

Let this breathe for an hour or so and you will be pleasantly surprised. Even though a little short on the length it is surprisingly balanced with some great flavors.

For the price, not bad but overall "meh". Candied red fruit on nose and palate. Finish is a bit off.

Fruity, lasting taste, rests well on the back of the tongue.

An ok Pinot. I'm sure it would have paired lovely with red meat or something with some spice, but I could have made a better choice with my tilapia and broccoli rabe.
