The wine looks rosy colored. The legs are medium. It smells like cherry. First 30 minutes, tastes of oak. The body is light/medium. The wine has smooth texture. The wine finishes medium. As night went on, less oak more fruit. Good Pinot, not great.

Agree with everyone else's comments; lots of oak, not enough fruit to back it up. Takes forever to open up. I would suggest letting breath for at least two hours before consuming. It tastes like black pepper and mineral. The body is medium. The wine has satin-like texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has medium acidity.

Well balanced, aromas of red berries and strawberries. Let breath for at least an hour before consuming. A little spice to it. Considering I purchased for $5.00 on close out, pretty good bottle of wine.
