Light, light ruby in the glass with wide edges. Huge nose of red fruit and earth. Raspberries, toasted wood, and a muted floral aspect going on. So unapologetically New World Pinot with incredible balance, this baby showcases some power. As easy drinking as this particular bottle is, it still shows plenty of complexity and layers of fruit. You really do feel like leaning back and relaxing while drinking this. Pomegranate, cherries, and a spoonful of blueberries constitute the fruit. Oak, damp forest floor, vanilla wafers, and the slightest bit of fresh leather. There’s a spicy note throughout culminating in the finish. Outstanding for what’s considered an entry level offering.

Not your typical Pinot. Very bold and spicy, with tons of cab-like tones. I don't drink much Pinot, but this one seems like it was made for me! The dinner at Sola was insane!! Going back ASAP!!

Slightly sweet and less complex than I'd want, but definitely drinkable and went well with the fish dishes.

Ruby red color, earthy bouquet, lush and silky textures, rich red fruits with hints of baking spices.
