"8-buck Chuck" from TJ's. Authentic pinot bouquet and character for less than $10 represent a real find. Much better than the many comparably priced pinots I've tried, including others from TJ's. Aromatic, light weight, silky and balanced demonstrate cool climate heritage and respect to the special qualities of the grape type.

Last bottle. Seemed to have lost some of the fruit. Extraordinary value. Unfortunately, subsequent vintages have not been as good.

Just as I remembered it. A phenomenal QPR. Too bad the 2009 was not even close.

Very nice Pinot for $8. Looking forward to getting of the next vintage.

v.g.nose, good body, somewhat silky, nice finish; finest PN value wine I've come across.
