This is not exactly my favorite style of Pinot, but we have to give them credit for bringing us a good mouth full of flavor for a reasonable price. My palate does not have complete appreciation for the super spicy, musty flavor profile. The color is deceptive dark from a distance, but surprisingly light magenta up close. The nose has wet turned black soil backing up spicy cinnamon and black cherry. The palate has a steely, mineral heftiness with the black cherry and boysenberry. Silky tannins. The crisp acidity enhances and compounds the spiciness. Moderate oak. The finish leaves a small amount of maraschino on the roof of the mouth, and the tip of the tongue.

Transparent reddish purple in color. Can see right through it in the glass. Light body. Berry aroma with hint of spice. Thin and smooth on the palate. Tasty with raspberry/strawberry flavors and maybe a little cherry but with a somewhat short finish. Decanted for an hour. A little better than just good - but doesn't reach to a "very good".

Cherry nose, sour cherry taste. Refreshingly tart.
