  Smells like raspberry purée and tastes like raspberries. Spice accents on the finish. Supple. Buy. 89

  We have been buying this regularly since release this year for a everyday value pinot to keep around. One of the better Castle Rock's I've had over the last few years, not a ton of depth nor expecting much from aging. Enjoyable today though for $15.

  Alcohol dominates the flavor. very hot wine even when chilled to 60. Outside of color, nothing said RRV to me.

  Pretty drinkable for an inexpensive pinot. Lots of cherry and a little dark fruit. Somewhat sharp and pretty straightforward.
