Scarlet /ruby glass with a translucent scarlet rim. Cherry, cooked berry, tobacco, and vanilla on the nose. This light bodied Pinot brings a nice acidity to the palate along with the aforementioned flavors. The medium finish features a tart cherry dryness. This is a nicely valued wine at $17.99 USD and is good with food or conversation.

Woodsy aromas a light body. This wine is fantastic and provides all the goodness of the Dry Creek Valleys soil and climate.
