My latest six pack shipment had 4 from Santa Lucia and one of these. Yet my wife cracked this one while I was traveling. That said, the 1/2 glass left for me when I got home was quite awesome!

Solid everyday wine with a fair amount of fruit.

Berry and a hint of what’s to come on the nose. Dried cherries and light pepper on the mouthfeel. We paired with roasted pheasant and asparagus which was AMAZING

A very nice Pinot. Earth, licorice, cherries with bright acidity. Drinking well now.
