9.1 rating mos def includes QPR factor. I’ve never tasted a better $20 Pinot. Pretty pale pink-red in the bowl. Fruit fruit fruititutti nose. Yeah cherry blossoms mostly but siem@fresh strawberry and a whiff of sweet freshly mown grass too. Sweet puckering cerises, Batman, POW! Bam! In the mid palate. Medium short flavors in the finish fade quickly to a nice lingering happiness memory... so the actual flavor part of the finish leaves, but there is something there... like the feeling after a great concert when you can’t really hear the music but it won’t really leave your head either and the soul-joy stays with you long after even the memory of the notes fade.
