Tried our 2nd bottle - still not very good - tastes nothing like how it did at the winery - strong off notes almost sulfur like - we ended up pouring it out. Maybe Flawed?

This is interesting juice. Sourced mostly from the Arbre Vert Vineyard, this wine possesses one of the most interesting colors I've seen- it's almost bronze and this darker color doesn't seem like it's due to age or a flaw. The nose is muted but I get melons, a little tropical fruit and nice minerality. On the palate, the wine has solid acidity and abundant fruit. Grapefruit, lemon, peach and some pepper are most prominent. This is just a solid wine for the money and really well balanced.
A very well made wine from Adam Lee. I wish I had a lot more of this. ***1/2

Pinot Days Chicago (Navy Pier, Chicago): Notes of peach blossom and melon with floral overtones. Flavors of apple and cherry, with nice underlying acidity. 88-89 pts.

Chicago Pinot Days-2009 (Navy Pier, Chicago IL): nose: nice and crisp nose of melons, lemon zest, ctrus' and a touch of red cherries
taste: crisp lighter feel backs up with tones of melons, cherries, and various citrus tones
overall: a nice and easy wine. This makes for a good summer sipper and a nice food wine for some fish
