April 16, 2012 - PnP. Noticeable strawberries, earthy tones, some tea flavor. Easy and satisfying.

November 17, 2011 - pretty decent QPR. Hard to find a pinot under $10 that has any complexity at all. This tastes like it might actually improve with a year or two.

September 30, 2011 - Pop 'n pour. Didn't dig this bottle so much -- seemed a bit out of balance with some alcohol showing.

September 15, 2011 - Pop 'n pour. Fairly fruit forward, slightly candied, with some spice. Good balancing acidity and finishes with some soft tannins. No overt woody or vanilla oak flavors -- a rarity at this price point. One of the best Cali Pinot values I've seen.
