Medium red color with a Berry fruit nose giving off a little spice. The wine shows plum, cherry and strawberry flavors on the palate together with some oak and spice taking over. Tannins are present as well as some spiny acidity. Finished about medium, ok but not great.

Such a good value. On the heavier side of Pinot but deliciously fruity and even a tad of dried leaves and earth. Yummy.

Meh. Lightweight. The berry and citrus are out of whack. Stick to Steele's whites.
