Burgundy, France
Can’t fathom the low rating. What more do you want for a Pinot for $18?

Nose of plummy, sirloin deliciousness; violets and lavender. Imminently drinkable with cranberry and raspberry giving way to tart cherry and a smoky streak throughout. Beautiful and impressive display of finesse with wiry sinew. Perfect silken complement to cedar plank steelhead trout. .

Great little $15 table red with elegance and food-friendliness. A bit of floral lift. Great purchase if you’re in a random Whole Foods and need something to bring to dinner.

Amazing fruit nose, juicy, balanced tannins, silky.

A nice round Pinot noir. Some good red and black fruit flavors — cherry and blackberry most notably for me. Not overly heavy, and pairs well with a number of dishes as well as drinking on its own. For sure would buy again, and would serve at a dinner party where folks may have different tastes.

Crazy good for the price. Fresh raspberries and red roses on the nose. More raspberries and smoke on the palate with a waxiness on the finish. A kiss of sour as well. So gentle. What a nice wine!

A "Vin de Table" in every sense. Simple, elegant, begs for food. Cherry compote and slight barnyard funk. I want a case
