Terrific price:value ratio. A lighter style of Pinot Noir that can take on a nice chill with confidence. Silky tannins, balanced alcohol. Black cherries galore.

Aromas of strawberry, nutmeg, and smoke start things off. Super jammy on the palate - just like you're making up some strawberry preserves. Acid seems a little disjointed with the profile of the wine. Medium weight tannins.

Medium acid hit to the palate of dry sour cherry and raspberry. Finish is medium short with tiny tannins and sour cherry predominance. Fair value at $13.95 USD but lack of depth and fruit flavor make this thinner Pinot more of an everyday light dish friend.

A sphere of infinite smoothness hovers in place in a room of intense purple; the room is only accessed through a secret door that is never behind the same bookcase twice.

Young purple ruby. Grapy, sweet red and black cherry aroma with tea, off dry, mid acidity, well grained tannin. Sweety.
