Lots of information on the back label for all you technicians out there. Light body, some spice on the back-end, all in all quite pleasant. Nothing to jump for joy over, but around $17 I couldn't say it was bad value. A nice everyday Pinot, paired nicely with turkey burgers, cheese ravioli, and simple tomato salad.

Deep garnet. Slightly spicey fruit on the nose. Quite fat and alcoholic. Chocolate, red fruit, pruney notes. Not unlike a cheap Zin in the mouth. Got better with a bit of air but certainly not elegant or showing varietal typicity for my palate. V informative back label.

More prune and raisin than the 2002, also more unintegrated oak. Not horrible, but not my style.
