This is comfort pinot, and no doubt the best example at $20 you can find. Juicy raspberry, bright acid, perfect daily drinker...I wish I had more, but the shop is closed and so I'm left with just my last bottle. This note is not doing the wine justice, but I've already had most of the bottle myself...

Whoa...as soon as I pull the cork from an arm's length away I'm getting fresh bread dough. That's weird.
To be continued...
And not to worry, a return to form. The raspberries, roses, and a somewhat lighter expression of black tea have returned. Somewhat rather more acidic than I guess would be desireable for purely cocktailing after all. Perfect with pulled roast chicken and a light gravy over egg noodles with buttered croissants. Wonderful on a day off without the guilt of spending too much on the bottle.

Fresh raspberry juice, roses and some intense black tea on the nose. Continues through onto the palate with a lively freshness and bright acidity.
Note: Cocktailed beautifully.

A review with Bill. Still nice and fresh. Very raspberryish right now.

Hitting the bottle once again. And it was quite good.
