Opened, decanted and served immediately. Paired with pizza. Initial thoughts: light cherry fruit with a singular and somewhat narrow profile; lightweight in body; ends with a semi dry cherry finish. Put back into bottle and finished on day 2. Additional notes: darker cherry with more depth and width; heat is now noticeable; fruit starts to fade out ending with a semi dry finish. Good.

Above all like plum cake (Zwetschgendatschi) - sharp caramelized fruit, nice acid. Felt a bit thin on the finish compared to some central coast pinots.

PNP really good QPR for a Russian River Pinot. It’s not on par with Goldeneye, Dairyman or Iron Horse but it’s so much better than it’s peer offerings. Paired well with steak.

Nice pinot but nothing special. Dark fruit, a bit of fruit punch flavor. Was surprised, didnt expect much from it. Price is high for what you get though.

Always really good and this was as advertised. Complex RRV Pinot properly made and ready to go. Wish it was $10 cheaper but my banker bought this time, thanks Rabo.

Not as distinctive as many other D-G pinots, but quite good nevertheless. Ample red fruit; smooth. More than adequate for Thanksgiving dinner.

Needed time to open. But after 2-3 hours it was very smooth.

Not complicated. Bright red fruit. Just an easy, lighter, pleasant-drinking Pinot.

A nice Pinot Noir! It has a light berry and plum start with a very clean finish. It’s a little thin but has a nice bit of spice to it.

Very solid wine. Medium bodied. Bold enough to drink on its own but would pair well with cheese too. More earthy and mellow than fruity and acidic.
