Clear deep garnet in color. Nose is very smokey, with maybe a little earthiness. Palate is very smokey, with maybe a hint of fruit. Finish is very smokey. This wine tastes like they took a low end pinot, marinated it in an ashtray, then strained the results and bottled it. WHO really drinks this stuff???

Doesn't taste like a Pinot Noir but for the price it is an easier sipping wine; better after opening for > an hour.

Intriguing aroma, spivey tobacco and hint of melon. Light tannins with spicy finish. Markedly different from most Pinots

Light Pinot with a jam filled nose. Lots of leather, smoke and licorice on the palate.
