I just started drinking wine (literally this is my 3rd bottle but I discovered that I really love wine) and so i can not really say anything worth mentioning other than this wine was very good and it went well with my bbq'ed burger. It wasn't strong like the other Pinot I tried but I believe this one had more of a dry taste and wasnt real fruity. Over all, I give it 4 out 5 Tequila shots (my alcohol of choice was tequila for 25 years) so this is my rating scale until I know better.

However, the only thing is... a screw cap??? What's up with that. Why change something that doesn't need to change, part of the fun is popping the cork.

Drank at Rick and Muriel's with brisket and black eyed peas dinner. Following Rose Bowl. Some spice, good mouthfeel, light berrys.

Luscious and delicious with a bright berry flavor and light acidity. A surprising Pinot.
