As a plain drinking wine its passable. As a Pinot Im not so sure. The nose gave off no indication of Pinot Noir, on the palate it was only half there. Would have thought this was a blend with Syrah really. Ultimately its drinkable, but would not buy again.

Beautiful dark garnet color. Nose has a hint of Oregon pinot funk, black raspberry and mint. Palate teases with dark cherry and those raspberries, but there is no weight at all to this wine. This is a surprisingly thin wine. There are noticeable tannins, but once they arrive there is no more fruit. The finish is very short. This wine is quite drinkable, but for $23, a definite PASS.
color 5/5 nose 7/10 palate 14/20 balance 5/10 finish 2/5

Candy apple pinot. Not much depth, but solid.
