Okay, it's a light pinot and have had better... but it's got it's own mojo going that makes it a real nice drinker. Pale ruby in color has hints of fruit and mild spices which doesn't disappoint when you taste it. Has a nice lingering smooth tannin-fruit finish..

As said before, a good 20$ Pinot Noir. Light, fruity. Uncomplex gentle flavors, nothing stands out or is in your face. Mouth-feel is it's most lacking quality, a little to light for my taste. Not one of my favorites but my wife loves the stuff. De Ponte Cellars second label cheap bottling. EDIT: We just drank the last one we own, very light bodied right out of the bottle, gained some character after being open for a day.

This is one of our favorite $20 pinots. A wonderful nose. Drink in the next 12 months
