I guessed this one wrong. I had this pegged for Carneros. It exhibits a funky purple plum nose with a bit of baking spice. On the palate warm plum, nicely balanced, finishing with spices. This is a very good value wine.

An easy Pinot Noir of charm and grace far more Côte Challonaise than California and all the more appetizing and refreshing for it!
