Waited too long. Had with roast turkey, sweet potatoes, and brussels sprouts. Nice enough, but unbalanced. Lots of dark cherry fruit but some heat, and lack of complexity.

There is a lot to like about this medium-to-deep ruby Pinot, which offers a nice nose of wild berries, black tea and exotic spices. It is medium-bodied on the palate, with low-to-medium acidity, light fine-grained tannins, well-integrated alcohol (listed as 14.1%) and flavors in line with the nose. The wine gains depth on the middle palate and ends with a long, supple finish. Those looking for a well-priced, extremely well-crafted Pinot need look no further than this one. Drink now-12/15.

Earthy cherry aromas and flavors with spice and toasty oak notes on the tasty finish with refreshing acidity.

Not up to the last bottle with more prominent oak.
