Solid everyday Pinot. Went great with Thanksgiving dinner, especially with the cranberries. Balanced on the pallet and not overly interesting on its own, but paired pretty well with a nice turkey leg. Good value, and without the tartness common in other budget pinots.

Definitely not a sappy, sweet zin. Decent tannins with a nice finish - would work with a lot of dishes. Not sure I would have known it was a zin on a blind taste, but in my view a solid red, especially after a couple hours once it opened up.

Lots of cherry in a stunning Pinot offering. Silky & earthy - who knew they could be so joined?
