Past being good. Bitter initial taste and bitter finish. Color was rust to brink. Nose is off. One might be able to force it down, but it is not pleasant.

a little yeasty in the nose, a light red in every sense (12.7%), explosion of fruit and tannins, fresh and zingy, acidic in a good way, lingering finish, a very well built and fairly complex Burgundian Pinot

Thin and watery, with a pretty sour aftertaste. For a few dollars, not nearly as bad as others out therebut certainly not full of berries or other red/dark fruit. Maybe some greener notes.

Well-made from unripe fruit. Nothing can save this wine from being green and tangy, with vegetal overlay. Absolutely requires food to consume. A steal at 2.99 from Trader Joe's......that is they stole the TJ buyer's money on this one.

What an awful wine. Watery, lacking flavor, extremely low alcohol and a non-existent finish. Amazingly, a bad value even at $6.99. What a disappointing French Pinot Noir. The problem I have with wines like this, is that somebody might be turned off to the varietal in general after experimenting with this one. Avoid like the plague at any price.

Recognizably pinot noir, and reasonably balanced. At this price, that's a value. God.
