The nose is a little funky/earthy with light cherry notes. The palate is more medium bodied than expected, and has a little tannins/acid. Initial attack is cherry notes, and the finish is medium in length with ongoing cherry with perhaps a little oak thrown in (vanilla). Not as many adjectives with respect to aromatics/flavours on palate as last review, but this is what i get. Not getting any cherry cola...For 24$ i guess this has a decent QPR.

This is my second 07, and I think it is 8-10 months away from peak. Has great cherry cola flavors, with some strawberry, wet earth and mint. the 06 was great and I believe this will get there as well.

My first 07 of this and does not dissapoint. Pretty nose of bright red fruit and a note of cinnamon and white pepper. On the palate has great weight for a Pinot and a silky texture. Cherries for days. $14.99 is a steal for this if you can find it, very limited.

I had this wonderful wine with kung pow scallops which was a wonderful pairing. This wine was very smooth and has strawberry overtones in both the nose and taste.
