Wednesday, October 10, 2012 - Color: translucent light ruby -> diffuse light ruby rim. Nose of beetroot, cranberries, cherries; very pinot. Lovely balance and acidity; slightly sweet fruit and medium finish. Palate mirrors the nose with some spice. This is really quite nice and is pretty amazing for the price (less than $20). Compares favorably with the 2009 showing that vintage wasn't just a flash in the pan. Really delicious and easy to choose as my everyday drinking pinot. True, it's not Burgundy but I think it could put more than a few bourgognes and even some village-level wines to shame.
