Full-bore cherry and raspberry aromas. Some spice, too, along with a note of lavender. Pleasantly spicy in the midpalate, too, with cherry and berry notes continuing through. Pomegranate and smoke notes, too. Spicy, chocolatey finish. A big Pinot at 14.3% alc/vol, but not out of balance--will just appeal more to those that like a zaftig, California Pinot rather than something leaner.

Not as good as what I had expected from this wine. Could definitley taste the cranberry on the tongue here and lasted longer that what I would have liked out of a Pinot. Probably wouldn't get again for the price.....

decent standard pinot. Varietally correct, but nothing that really stands out. Tasty, enjoyable, but nothing that really makes you think

Pretty good QPR on this pinot. Had it on Christmas with salmon. Strawberry and cranberry on the taste. Would buy again given the price point.
