Did not taste like a Pinot, much more of a spicy zin from Paso Robles or Dry Creek. No fruit, seemed heavy altho relatively low alcohol. Tasted twice from two separate bottles. Maybe defective case? Heat damage?

Delicious cab blend from an underrated producer. Moderate tannins, relatively low alcohol, huge fruit and long finish. Taste of cheery and moderate past Robles spice, but definitely a cab and not a zin. Terrific price point.

Delicious, nice fruit upfront (berries maybe?), medium finish. Ok to drink now, not sure about aging potential. Nice price point.
