May be getting a little long in the tooth. Deep purple, nse of cherry violet and cedar. A little plum and cherry on the palate but a little flat, a little southern Rhone syrah character. Decent and drinkable but not what I was looking for to go with roasted salmon and potatoes.

Rod Bender got it correct in 2015. This wine has evolved some since that review. Still has tannin's with slight bitterness which smooths out with 1 hour decant. Good fruit, spice, rose, chocolate, and cherry. It continues to get better with age. Solid Pinot Noir. Drinking window out till 2021 easy.

Adequate! Seriously, it was fine. Good value for money. I've moved beyond CH, but it didn't suck.

This pinot had hints of flavor. The characteristics did not make me want to keep going back for more.
