Why aren't there more domestic wines like this at this price point ? Just an easy balance of earth, tea, and clean red Pinot fruit. No blockbuster, no extended hang time, no extra extraction. Perfect for the dinner table, any night. #kogodwinemerchant

Subtle and savory, nicely balanced at 12.5%, with a hint of minerality on the medium finish. Classic Oregon Pinot character, under $30. For the price this really delivers.

Understated and savory. Very happy to discover this at a very nice price point.

Nez vraiment agréable.
En bouche, c'est passable, un poil remonte-gencives :)

Little funk then baking spice, earth, tea, and pine needle. Savory and delicious. Good stuff for a WV wine. Day 3: This has added depth, really delicious.
