Big cherries upfront, was a little tight but opened up nicely after ~15min. Some leather/saddle, minimal earthiness, overall nice.

Drinking the 2013 from my cellar is better than the glass I previously had in a restaurant. Delicate red color, tar nose, raspberry & cherry on the palate initially with tart fruit finish.

Light with a Concord grape flavor, has a sweet middle and quick finish

Local barkeep did right by me when he suggested this Pinot. Smooth and balanced, it went perfectly with our Italian entree.

Fragrant and easy to drink for the price. Good value.

It's full body with some fruit undertones. Light on the pallet and doesn't have a strong aftertaste, which is desirable.
