Been meaning to try one of these for awhile, but kept forgetting; first pinot noir from this area and overall I was pleasantly surprised; the nose was lovely with pure red fruits, some menthol spices, floral, and a bit of earth. The palate has good freshness and a lovely purity to it; nice acidity which allowed it to pair very nicely with a richer pasta dish we had for dinner. Depth didn't blow me away, but it was very good and honestly probably better than I anticipated. That said, not sure I would buy again for the price. We will see if my two other bottles change my mind.

Drank second bottle in February of 2023 and the wine has developed a little more depth and complexity I like it but still think the QPR is off- maybe it’s a $49 wine with a $60 sticker. Very enjoyable but I’m not buying more at this price given the other pinots available

Lean, light, with well integrated medium high acidity. It's not tight but the acidity makes it a food wine for sure. The fruit is a little green but very good. Not overly complex but a very enjoyable cool climate Pinot. Awful QPR, this is a mid $30s wine a best. Note: bottle uses a glass stopper rather than cork.
