This drinks favorably to 2018 that I used to buy at Costco for $30. Costco quit carrying it. This was $42, a little pricey for quality. 2018 was better with more structure. 2019 is lighter in style, but well balanced and consistent throughout. Sweet cherry and ripe strawberries dominate. Much sweeter than 2018, and more crowd-pleaser than serious PN. Nevertheless, it's very pleasant to drink w/no objections.

Medium-dark garnet in color. Full, forward & aromatic nose of ripe fruit aromas of cherries, blueberries & plums with overtones of spices, floral & earthy/dusty notes, minerals, pepper, herbs & a touch of oak/vanilla in the background. Medium bodied with a very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of cherries, blueberries & plums with spices, minerals, herbs, cola & a hint of oak/vanilla. Lingering finish. Drinks well at present although it does have potential for further development with additional aging.

Bigger Pinot that is drinking well. Dark cherry and blackberry notes with some spice and earth. Nice on the nose and palette. Consistent from start to finish.

Bon pinot, mais un peu plus generique
