PnP - okay was not expecting too much here, but was actually more pleasantly surprised. There is some decent acidity in this wine to balance the fruit and I found it to be a pleasant quaffer. Sort of tart cranberry and rhubarb pie flavors. Far better than the Cab that was served after this.

PnD let air for 1hr need to blow off some of that Cali commercial oak. Dark garnet clear with fuschia to clear rim. Bing cherry vanilla and caramel with a touch of rhubarb on the nose. Snappy red fruits on the palate came to the forefront with some air nice cherry and raspberry notes but a little too much oak influence for me. Clean but still contrived. Way overpriced.

Peppery with a long finish - very nice weekday Pinot from a great Pinot producer at a good price point.
