From magnum. I really enjoyed this. A bit more austere and dry than most would probably expect and want from a CA pinot. Plenty of mixed berry fruit and great structure. Not to be confused with Red Burgundy but the relationship is obvious.
An example of less is more.

Garnet-tinged red. Licorice, watermelon, and cedar nose. Medium bodied, cranberries, sharp cherries, cola, baking spices, well integrated tannins, smoke, a bit of heat, and a dry, medium length finish. Kind of simple but very tasty.

2013 LAETITIA VINEYARD & WINERY RESERVE du DOMAINE PINOT NOIR- deep bright red color; a mild nose of spice, white pepper and earth laden red fruit with raspberry and cherry most prominent; the taste profile was somewhat mild and light as well and had a hint of a burnt smoky character; this is Pinot Noir Light or a mislabeled rose.

90+.....denser, and darker than the standard Pinot from this estate...although I did not find it any more complex than their estate PN. Still a nice value for the price....

Strawberry, cranberry, and cherry intermingle with notes of spice and cola. Medium alcohol, light tannins, easy drinking Central Coast pinot.
