There seems to be quite a variance of scores on this one. Certainly not an under 80 point nor over 90 point wine. Mid to upper 80's, It's a decent under $15 everyday wine (at Costco). A bit light with ample acidity. Would be best drunk with food. I think a few years of bottle age will help this wine. Much better than most under $20 California Pinot noir.

Medium body, Bright crimson color. Elegant red fruits aroma. Cherry, strawberry and may be blueberry on the palate, medium long finish. Light and fresh, complex, well balanced, nice acidity and soft tannins. Food friendly, best match is poultry or semi-hard cheeses. Open half hour in advance. Serve 16º - 22º. Drink now.

Slightly more tannin and acidity than the 2011 of the same wine. Could improve potentially, but no need to wait. A wine for people that like to drink wine as a part of their meal. Not a stand-alone blockbuster by any stretch.

Fruity and vegetal notes. Good balance and decent complexity.

Stone fruits, cherry, a little leather. Good; very nice with food (beef stew).
