Very light clear ruby, the nose had some "intersting" aromas like barnyard funk and rotten fruit. It is a very light bodied wine with very light tannins. There were hints of sage and blackberry on the palate but not any very strong notes lingering in the medium finish. Decent acidity but it just wasn't my favorite. I will say though that the nose got sweeter and smokier and the palate got more intriguing as it opened up in the glass, so maybe there is hope for this one yet?

Very pedestrian. No redeeming features. Tastes like a Mark West Pinot at twice the price.

Lightweight all around but not offensive. It may be past its prime.
