    June 10, 2011 - P&P at party. Open less than 20 min. Color medium ruby, clear, medium-light body. Pinot-esque Cali bouquet of cherries, oak, cola, and spice. Atypically fruity on the palate, with sweet cherries, strawberries, oak, and vanilla. Light structure, simple, easy drinking. Short finish of cherry cola and oak. Not offensive, but the kind of wine that makes me wish I hadn't bothered, and embodies why I don't pursue bargain PN.

    April 13, 2011 - Medium red colour. Cherry, oak and spice on the nose. Strawberry, oak, vanilla and a touch of creaminess on the palette. A warm climate pinot rather than a burgundian one. Nice, every day wine.

    April 3, 2011 - Pleasant. Pinots aren't my favorite, but this was enjoyable

    March 31, 2011 - Much better then earlier ratings... To the point that I kept looking at the bottle to make sure it was the same wine... A very good wine for $35 in a restaurant...

    March 5, 2011 - From the reviews I was ready to hate this wine, but I did not. Although it was not exceptional, and maybe overpriced, it was an interesting wine. The first taste seemed too bland, but after letting the second live for a moment on the palette, the Pinot was definitely there, along with some other interesting flavors. Adjusting the way I drank it, it turned out to be an enjoyable wine, though I wouldn't put it anywhere near the enjoyment of an exceptional Pinot.
