Black cherry on nose and the same on the palate but with a slight jammy cast. Acid is insufficient. Boring.

Stronger tannins for Pinot, nice structure and finish. Inexpensive!

Medium intensity, with aromas of strawberry, cream, spice, and oak. Medium body, with flavors like cherry, spice, smoke, vanilla, and toast. A long finish.

Red cherry, rhubarb and sour notes. Good acidity and generally leaning to the sour side. Whilst not particularly complex, still some distinctive notes on nose and palate. Enjoyed.......

Black fruits and a bit strong spicy taste even in Pinot could be felt. With herb flavor. Tanning and lots minerals also. At least 30 minutes should be taken after opening. Then calm aroma and balanced taste can be enjoyed. Garnet color and still deep flavor, not juicy. @950, TBreeze - TH, 180717-180721

Light bodied ! Earth and yeast flavors. A bit strong acidity for Pinot Noir! Low tannins!
