Go-to Pinot. Have had this over and over. Light, fruity, easy drinking. Great summer red.

Ruby with berry fruit aromas with a touch of spice scents. On the palate raspberry and strawberry flavors, some oak and pepper, simple, good balance, a bit savory, fine tannins with medium finish ending with oak notes. Tasting Sample.

Pretty fruit forward with cherry taking the reigns, surprisingly dry finish. Top-notch minerality, a priority in my ratings. Good Pinot.

I agree with the other comments. This has a lot of body and complexity. Not thin like many lower priced Pinots. Going back to the store to buy more.
