Last bottle and still drinking well (perhaps even the best yet—certainly my best score). At <$10, this has been one of the best QPRs of all time for me. This wine screams for BBQ or anything bacon/pork centric. Aromas of smoke, bacon, and cured meats jump out of the glass, along with some herbs, licorice, and dark red fruits. Medium body, acid, and finish, with flavors of cherry, black cherry, smoke, and cured meat. Seriously, this is like drinking salami or speck at this point. Tannins are fully integrated and wine is smooth. Killer stuff and unbelievable price. Sad I'm through these. This is probably truly a 90pt wine, but I gotta give this bottle a point bump tonight for the complexity I'm getting. Bravo.

Simple but tasty PN at a bargain price. Nicely complemented a salmon and shrimp in creamy pesto sauce over cheese ravioli.

Pure pinot flavors, simple, seems nicely unmanipulated so it's pleasing to drink. Good acidity makes it food friendly. Drink now.
