Tastes more like the earthiness of an Oregon Pinot Noir than one from Monterey. Dark fruits and berries in a light colored red. Great TJs buy for $8.

Easy drinking. The finish is smooth. The aroma is fruitier than it tastes. For the price you cannot go wrong in my opinion.

Cola and cherries. Originally thought it was decent but I hate Cali Pinot Noir. Too warm. Terroir doesn't show through. I'll take a Bourgogne regional wine over this any day.

Good for the price point. Subtle, fruit-forward, but still on the dryer side.

Juat not very good. Watery, light, a bit on the sour side.

Verrrry smooth and fruity; less dry than other Pinots; excellent for the price!

Just horrible! Strong acid taste. No pleasant taste or after-taste. Makes Charles Shaw seem refined!
