Nicely balanced pinot. Not a big fruit bomb. It paired nicely with a Southwestern stuffed chicken breast. Some cedar and a bit of graphite. Medium bodied and some nice tannins on the finish. Glad to have 2 more bottles left.

Thought this wine was very good. A good pairing with grilled Mahi as it had a little more weight, some cedar, and some vanilla, but not over the top. Buy more if offered again.

like smoked cherries if such a thing existed; a little bit more funky than the last; finish remains unimpressive but nose, mouthfeel and midpalate are great

Enjoyable, pretty typical RRV pinot -- very easy to like wine of this caliber, even if it's not spectacular.

Paired well with veal meatballs and papardelle. Aroma of blackberry, smooth textured and nice acidity. I would buy this pinot again.
