Found on a closeout rack for $8. Surprisingly nice pinot as have not had many from Chile and thought maybe this would have been over the hill but still had nice ruby cilor with decent fruit holding up. Don't think it's got a lot to carry much further but might go back to see if there is a few left for that price,

I've had some good luck with the ~$15 Chilean pinot on sale for ~$10, so I took a chance on a case, and this is right in line with what I'd expect and hope for. Transparent garnet color. Smokey, earthy aromas of red fruits, funk, spice, and smoke. Medium body, acid, and finish, with flavors of cherry, dried spices, licorice, and leather. The oak is not unnoticed, but not a detractor for me. Solid QPR.
