Medium body. Raspberries. Well balanced. Nice acidity. Glad I discovered the Gary Farrell Pinots this year. Goodbye 2020.

Had a 2016. Obtained it through the wine club. Had a horrible nose. Smelled like dirty socks. Maybe I had a bad bottle but buyer beware

This is incredibly tight and young. Would love to taste this again in 5 years. Should have laid it down . It has great potential

This is a rather youthful, sweeter, "just ripened" crushed raspberry dominated front with a hint of orange peel. The middle of this wine displays this sweeter raspberry note, but turns darker into black tea, black cherry and sweeter tobacco notes. The finish displays wonderful acidity and just kept on going. I'm not so familiar with this locale, but the pinot from this area does appear to be rockin'!

Absolutely perfect choice for those who like a medium bodied flavorful Pinot Nior.
