Seems disjointed and confused. Nose shows spices, red fruits, and tobacco. Palate is very lean, tart, and not generous. Off bottle?

Maybe the best Coloradan Pinot Noir?
Comes across as more old world than new except the alcohol is a tad more noticeable.

Tobacco, smoke, and dark fruits on the nose. There seems to have been some secondary fermentation going on -- quite fizzy on the tongue. Very unfortunate.

Light and refreshing. Not too thin and paired with a pork chop fine. Nose all berry. Palate light on the tannin and finish curtailed. Paid $40 at a restaurant so it was ok and my friends liked it fine.
