Dark red/purple in the glass. Big strawberry, earth, 'stink' on the nose. Flavor profile is slightly unripe strawberry, spice, earth, barnyard. Decent balance. Less heat than many California PNs at this price point (under $25).

Comes off hot and needed a bit of a decant. Not bad for the price. Not a wine I would seek out, but not horrible either. Best sub $20 pinot so far. (Not that I plan to seek out a lot of those. In this price category I find it better to go with safer plays.)

Great QPR. Not overly complex, but very nice flavor, depth, and finish. It's hard to find a good pinot in this price range, so I think this fills a niche.

Nto bad for an everyday wine. Nose of bright cherries, earth and menthol. Light bodied wine with a minty fresh feel, cranberries and light cherries. Medium length finish with some oak coming through along with the mint. Good acidity that picks things up. Not an ager, but a good everyday drinking wine.
