  Loved the intense fruity aromas of cherries and raspberries with a touch of spice.
  
  As with most Pinot's this wine had a light body, medium+ acidity and low tannins.
  
  The palate was full of ripe cherries and raspberries with a touch of allspice and vanilla. Finished long and smooth.
  
  Pretty darn good for understand $10.

  This is a hard to hate but also hard to like wine. Just blah ! Forward fruits with an acidic backbone which borders on sour. I suspect that the grape picking conveyor belt does not get audited. Factory production of a wine which could be better made. $10 maybe if the reason it is not a sub 80 rating.

  We love this fruity, inexpensive pinot for every day drinking. Not super complex, but nicely balanced and tastey. It's a nice go-to to have on hand that will please surprise or mass company.

  Served with pizza at a party. Straightforward, like got, modest tannins. Let it air out a bit. Decent table wine.
