A little bit of bitterness, but that's never stopped me before.

Didn't love the first sip but it grew on me and I'm pleased with the second half of my glass. On the drier side of what I like.

Meaty strawberry and raspberry with a hint of wet dog. Drinkable but nothing exquisite.

Flabby but honestly there's nothing wrong with it. Berry fruit.

Got this wine as a CPK special, otherwise probably wouldn't try it. Actually not bad, pretty smooth. Glad I brought the bottle home. Perfectly fine for a Friday night after a frentic week.

Best cheap PN on this trip. Main reason: not over-oaked!

Mushroom, rotten wood, black pepper. Earthy and muddy finish.

Smooth, good with my steak. Not very complex, but easy to drink.
