Drank as part of a blind Pinot tasting. It was clear garnet color. Moderate intensity on the nose, but I had difficulty identifying specific aromas. Medium bodied and off-dry with low soft tannins. The balance was fair and the palate was smoke, vanilla and caramel, followed by deep red fruits. Slightly disappointing on the finish, just a bit short.

Light nose if any Elegant pomegranate-ish flavors that come up quickly and dance across the palate. Smooth but light Best buy itself and not sure how it will do against food Enhances spices in dinner Nice by itself good for talking around the table and love the flavors by itself.

Liked this better than previous bottles. Beautiful Burgundy color with a bouquet and flavor of raspberries, cherries, and spicy Burgundy undertones. Much better definition and more nuance than prior bottles, with a moderate finish. Very pleasant. Thank God for California Pinot Noir!

Burgundy color with a bouquet and flavor of raspberries, cherries, and allspice, but with little depth or nuance, and with a very short finish. Very mono-dimensional. Drink it up.

Bright and focused, with cherry, clove, raspberry and a touch of cigar box
