Opened Jan 2023 so a bit out of its drinking window, more acidic and tastes more unfinished than expected from a pinot noir, especially at this price point

The wine pours a very very pale ruby. On the nose, very ripe fruit…cherries, strawberries…almost a bit medicinal.
On the palate, there is a very smooth entry with fresh red fruit and a hint of oak presence. Mid palate is a tad bit astringent from the very ripe fruit. Long finish
Overall, nice QPR. I think you may be better served paying a few extra dollars for a better balanced Pinot, but this is enjoyable.

Earthy notes of conifer, green peppercorns, and tomato leaf over black raspberries and dark cherries. Smoothly textured, good length, depth, and concentration. Toasty brown sugar lends a density. Good now with air but it's still youthful and will probably gain layers and complexity with another year in bottle.

Pretty good for a $14 wine. Nothing remarkable. Moderate berry, holds up to a steak. Low tannins.
