October 4, 2005 - Wanting a red to drink with pan-fried pork chops, we opened this pinot. It delivered nicely with great fruit, cola overtones and easy drinking. Nose of cherry and bark, but not the typical pinot bouquet.

March 30, 2004 - Bought this tonight to try. I am beginning my search for an everyday pinot for this years salmon season. This wine was enjoyable. A nice pinot aroma with a bit of barnyard. Nice fruity wine that went well with last years frozen salmon. Will continue the search.

February 8, 2004 - Mouth bursting full of ripe fruit, cherries, plums. Fast attack and then fades. Fairly one-dimensional, but still very enjoyable.
