Almost sweet, rasberry nose which is very appealing. Great soft texture. Stays nicely in balance. Not terribly complex, but great fruit and silken texture. 87-88

Overall, a good bottle, and enjoyable, but not a fantastic PINOT.
Nose was nice with cherry spicy fruit. Palate had the same spicey cherry and did actually have some of the cola nuances that the lable claims. Finish was medium length.
This is perhaps a different style than I'm used to. Less Rasberry/Strawberry fruit, less floral of a nose. More tannin and a shorter finish than expected.
If tasted blind, I would have thought Syrah or Zin.
