Bright cherry, mushroom funk, and acid. It tastes like Pinot. What more do you want? A great entry level into Burg.

A very fruity wine, roses, black currant, silky tannins, slight sweetness on the finish similar to a Zinfandel

Pale lemon with aromas of stone fruits and blossom notes. On the palate flavors of ripe apple and citrus with notes of spice and yeasty mineral. Vivid acidity, medium+ finish, ending with fruit notes. Nice value!

Juicy with quality finesse. Tannins are well integrated throughout the palate. But, the acid seems to try and dominate at times. Bright sour cherries, strawberries, blood oranges, rose hips, wet gravel, and potting soil flood the bouquet. Minerality and floral notes press the finish. 2014 seems to be a great year for immediate consumption. There is enough fruit here to use as a good transition from California to Burgundy. Burgundy doesn't have to be hundreds of dollars and aged to enjoy. Go drink some Village Burgundy from good vintages. It won't kill you! Cheers!

Just a bit too fruity for us, with a letdown finish.
