1/13/2024 - ChristoBretts Likes this wine: 90 pointsA Trader Joes purchase resulting from a review by Bob Paulinski and a request by a friend to find a $10 decent wine. PnP, floral on the nose that became more pronounced in the glass. Thin in the mouth at first, then added weight and silky texture over the next hour or so. Developed in the glass to a classic Pinot taste with a nice creamy finish. Grainy tannin, slightly nuanced, also good on day-2. A hard to beat Pinot at $10 and certainly enjoyable. Recommend decant for an hour or more before pouring. |

2/7/2021 - IrvineCellar Likes this wine: 87 pointsPale ruby and clear. Nose is oaky with vanilla, clove, and red and black fruit. It’s light bodied with smooth tannins and decent acidity. Pretty well balanced at this price point. Palate is cherry, vanilla and clove. Finish is clean. This isn’t bad for this price. 87 pts |

1/8/2021 - chezbeach Does not like this wine: 77 points2021. This wine is dead. It needs a Caretaker. Seriously, perhaps this was good 4-5 years ago. Well past it’s peak. Meltallic aftertaste hits at about 45 seconds. |

4/30/2020 - mjwilliams2 Does not like this wine: NRDry. Almost bitter. Super short finish. Had alone, with carnitas, and with sea salt almond chocolate (it’s a good life). Not for me. |

5/12/2019 - Neecies Likes this wine: NREven better after nearly a year of rest. Apple and pear fruit, some lemon, nice body and acidity. IOW, balanced and fairly restrained for a California chardonnay, minerality helps it drink like a Macon. |

8/12/2018 - Neecies Likes this wine: NRCentral Coast, French oak and 13.5% alcohol bring together a very pleasant wine for nine dollars (Trader Joe's). All the usual suspects plus a bit of vanilla custard. |
