  Oaked strawberry compote with a silky finish. Drinking well after a few hours of air.
  
  While inoffensive and a crowd pleaser, I personally found nothing of interest in this wine. This is indeed a solid pinot noir, but perhaps a bit too aggressively priced.

  Color is dark but translucent garnet. Nose is very nice red fruit, oak, sweet spice, light florals, wet earth, some alcohol. Palate is medium bodied, good weight for a pinot noir. Notes of cherry, oak, sweet spice. Overall, very nice and relatively straightforward, not the most intellectual, but one of my recent favorite pinots. A crowd pleaser with the family. Paired with albóndigas soup nicely.

  Extremely dark color with a red hue on the rim Taste of red fruit but not very tart. More of a balance of fruit flavors here. Acidity is in check. Mid palate delivers more of the same of what I’m tasting initially I do also get some spice and Darker fruit flavors but it wanders off after a few seconds off the swallow. I let this breathe in the decanter for about 2 hours. Maybe hour n a half. Slight tannins on the back of the tongue A good wine all in all. I would say I’m less of a Pinot fan but this wine was put together with love an I liked it. I’m also thinking this wine has a lot more to show but it’s just soo young. Still a delightful treat.

  A little more full bore, a little more richness to it.

  Ruby color with slow legs. Oak, cedar and strawberry on the nose. Raspberry, white pepper and red plum on the palate. Long satin-like finish.
