  I like it. Simple fruit forward Pinot with light-medium to medium body. Ends earthy. One of the better New World Pinots I've had (e.g. New Zealand, Oregon - those tend to be too light and sour).

  Bright red fruits, garrigue, hint of oak on nose.
  
  Medium acidity, medium tannins.
  Decent balance.
  
  Nothing calls out to me here..an okay wine.

  14,2% d’alcool
  Œil : soutenu, opacité 4/10, larmes épaisses en parois
  Nez : projection d’intensité 4/10, boisé, fumé, fruité, vanille, cannelle, alcool qui apporte un côté glycérine en réchauffant dans le verre, plus intéressant lorsque rafraîchit donc
  Bouche : sec, ample+, acidité moyenne, tanins plutôt souples, amertume moyenne, persistance moyenne (au mieux), rétro fruitée, boisée, épicée, alcool
  Conclusion : sympa lorsque servi frais, sans plus. Trop d'alcool. Pas assez de fraîcheur. Payé 21$ au domaine : trop cher.

  Light-medium ruby. Nose sports faint cherry and berry notes. A bit more presence in the mouth, with fruit framed by acid for structure. Standard quality. 4-11-14-7: 86/100.
