This wine is past its prime. Aerated prior to first taste, but still had a overpowering earthy nose. Once you got past the nose, the tastes were a muted cigar box, blackberry and plum. Tasted better the next day, nose was back to normal and tastes remained OK.

Good family quaffer for thanksgiving. Drinking nice now. Tupical dark fruit of a PN, some chocolate. Not much depth, but what do you expect from a $10 wine?

Color was dark red; nose was deep dark fruit with hints of earth; palate was unbalanced.

Easy to drink, good balance, but not complex Pinot. Great value.
