Chardonnay. Not a Pinot Noir.

Very complex, well rounded flavor. Closer to a cab sav in its robustness than a traditional Pinot.

This Pinot Nior just isn’t all that good. Thin mouth feel, no appreciable tannis. Hopefully, it was just this bottle because I got three more left. 😩 @Ted @Janell

I typically don't drink Pinot Noir. This is a nice light wine. A good smooth start and finish with cassis on the pallet.

A just right Carneros Pinot. Not overly dry. November 2018.

Definitely a heavier Pinot but that is a good thing. Enjoyable on its own, very smooth and not acidic. Not overly fruity. Another great wine from #moraswinetasting

I agree with the winemaker. This bottle had nice black fruits and a plump middle.

Burnt marshmallow and raspberry. Lovely palate, silky with spice and a long finish.
