Quite correct for a Santa Barbara Pinot Noir. Nothing special but a good quaff. Bought it for a closeout price of $15 at our local liquor store, which promotes major brands yet carries a small handful of unique stuff. Bottom line: nice house Pinot Noir.

Very fruity on the nose. Like cranberry jelly, ripe raspberry, slight red currant. Strong allspice.the palate is quite the same. A bit tart but doesn't last. Longish stay in the mouth but not very complex. Good value.

Not a big Pinot but plenty of typical California Pinot characterics at this price to be a good house wine.
