  Solid entry level PN from QG. At low $20 price point, how can you go wrong? Textbook Okanagan fruit, smooth red berry, touch of light strawberry jam, great acidity, so food friendly.

  I suppose a true Pinot Noir drinker would call it elegant, I would say somewhat austere. Classic Pinot nose, light bodied, but just slightly out of balance with respect to a lack of fruit.

  Not my favorite, but I think it's actually pretty decent. Very light colored and it has a great Pinot nose, but the flavor isn't all there, and there isn't a lot of balance. There's almost an oily quality to it, but that definitely helps with making for a long finish.

  Transparent burgundy. Elegant nose of red fruits. Medium+ acidity and light bodied with a palate of red fruit, including cherry and strawberry. Subtle spice that follows the fruit structure of this easy drinking, fruit forward Pinot. Much less of a "new world" pinot, despite the origins.
