By far the tastiest pinot noir I have had in a long time!

Simple with good fruit and cherry nose. Medium weight and regular finish. Nice with prawns and asparagus.

Sweeter style, thicker than a typical Pinot noir (belle glos excluded). Enjoyable, but very California.

I don't think they make a bad wine. Lighter (slightly) than the cabernet.

2022. The last of my J. Lohr trifecta from the Commissary. Very light bodied Pinot Noir, but nice cherry aromas and medium acidity. Should pair well with our surf and turf: salmon and steaks!
