Medium ruby to garnet with transparency. Smells like cherry, dill, graphite, soil, bit of tar and smoke, hint of floral. Medium body, medium (+) acid and finish, with flavors of sour cherry, lemon, barrel spices, black tea, and orange peel. Perfect high toned red for turkey dinner tonight.

Decanted for an hour prior to consumption. Delicate pinot, ripe red fruit (cherry/strawberry) that finishes with some earthiness/floral characteristics. Medium to medium-minus body, 12.5% ABV. Decent finish.
Very easy to drink and food friendly. This is the kind of pinot you could pair with white fish.

Love this style of California pinot. Pure red fruits, everything totally balanced, not overly spicy and no sharp edges at all. Definitely Burgundian in style. Will re-buy.

Dry sour cherry, pepper and green vegetal notes with a medium high tannin with a medium lingering finish. Not bad.

Alcoholic and getting thin. Strangely hot for a 12.5% wine. Bricking throughout. Time to drink up.
