Cherries dipped in milk chocolate, some bitter wildness on the nose, alcohol, cheap oak, watery finish, falls away fast. Better than most pinots at this price point, but I still don't really understand why $15 pinot noir is a popular category.

Meaty nose upon opening which toned down over time. Subtle raspberry jam and smokey note. Fruity and jammy in the mouth with medium acidity and very low tannin. Short finish. Pleasing.

Probablement le meilleur rapport Q/P pour un Merlot qui n'est pas que "juteux". mature avec une superbe finale, il s'avère un sapré bon PN!

exactly what I expected for $13 and from Don & sons. Loads of fruit, brambleberry, slight oak, great length. May become a house party pinot?
