Light ruby color, subdued aromas of cherry, spice and vanilla. As it opens up the cherry turns towards black cherry. Medium bodied with some good acidity. Definitely "fruit forward" but not in an overpowering way with soft tannins and a moderate length finish.

A bit darker garnet for a Pinot. Bouquet and flavor profile of dark cherry and cranberry. Good medium body mouthfeel and was slightly more acidic than what expected. Not a bad bottle for the price.

Not bad, but didn't really stand out from the budget Pinot they offer. Slightly high acidity but once you crest the hump, you get a nice window of the grape that closes with an earthy dry cherry. I've had better years from Blackstone Pinot reserve.

Harsh, not fruity, perhaps past it's prime
