Well rounded Jelly nose on smell. Metallic light body is more forward than the fruit on taste. Mild alcohol presence with slightly stingy finish. May be a good compliment to a fatty or strong cheese as it has a cutting quality that may wipe that palate. Price point is slightly high for the taste of experience. The smell is the better step of this liquid journey. Perhaps it’s attributed to more lighter fruit such as strawberry and less deep ness from darker fruits.

Really good, especially at the price point. Strawberries, cherries, and cola, with a hint of vanilla. Juicy and refreshing with a satisfying finish.

Red berries and cola with light tannins and medium weight. Pairs with a wide variety of foods.

Very nice pairing with some relatively spicy Italian food that is heavy with Parmigiana.

Lighter garnet color, nose with a touch of fruit and a hint of wet earth. On the lighter side of Pinot, smooth, fruit up front, light tannins and mild acidity. Some strawberry notes but also blackberries and dark plum. A touch of leather- Pretty good if you’re looking for a light red.

Exactly as the label describes black cherry {comma} red plums allspice. Personally not liking the allspice character.

A truly great California Pinot Noir. Fruity, big, deep taste. Would have this with a steak. Lovely.

Cherry with notes of blackberry and woodsy oak. Took a while to open up but was delicious. Bolder, complex taste for a Pinot, similar to a cab.
