Smokey and tangy fruit in the nose. Cranberry and pomegranate start with a tart acid finish. A light, high sugar Pinot.

solid performing, value based #pinot that is not a big, stroppy #cali bruiser posing as pinot but tasting as #grenache! much less fruity than kiwi offerings at similar price.

Excellent casual wine. Loads of cranberry on the front end, dry, low tannins, light body. Short, mild finish. Great with bread and stinky cheeses.

A very sensuous and on point example of a Californian Pinot Noir.

Maybe the bottle we got is a bit skunky but I don’t care for the taste

Juicy. Raspberry notes. Med tannins. Off dry. Very well balanced.

Excellent as a weeknight Pinot. A little sweet but overall well worth the dough
