Garnet with thin translucent pale pink rim. Medium, complex nose of strawberry, raspberry, cherry, marshmallow, vanilla, baking spice and cedar/mint. Light to medium body of cranberry, pomegranate and sour cherry bring clean acid to the palate with a baking spice, cinnamon, leather, and earth background. Small smooth tannins leads to a slightly dry finish of berry, pepper and cocoa. Very good balance and good structure make this a good value at $21.32 USD as a sipper or light dish partner.

Really really lovely. Some decent body for a pinot, lovely blend of spice and floral elements and very smooth. Good to drink out of bottle. No acid. Dry. Minimal tannin. this is dedicated to @Paul Wright who has gone to a better place, france! where it isnt -20 in november.

Raspberry, sour cherry, pomegranate at first. Some nice tobacco and earth. Passable for such a young wine, I guess, once it had some air. Has little tannic structure.

This is the Pinot Noir I compare all others to! You instantly get that berry flavor (bright strawberry for me) with a full rich texture (more like a cab) and a hint of spice that keeps it light. It's complex and I love everything about it!

Strawberry, raspberry and jammy fruit, intertwined with mushroom and forest floor on the palette. Decent Pinot for the price.

Full bodied and soft with medium acidity and nice legs.

Dry and fruity on the palate with a soft and spicy finish.

13.7% alcohol by volume.

87 Points.
