A good wine that I regret paying $21 for. Just not my style. Nice clear, bright fruit. Light bodied. Exactly what one should recommend to white zin or non wine drinkers. Carbonic maceration turned this Pinot into a Gamay, a lovely Morgan Cotes de Py, but a rather one dimensional gamay nonetheless.

A little on the sweet side side and thin bodied for my taste but very smooth and fruity. A scent of grape jam and damp earth. Try with a little sweeter meal next time. We had with Cornish Hens and wild rice stuffing. It accompanied the Key lime pie well though. Still myself, my wife and her father enjoyed it.

Red in color. Nose offers subtle hints of cherry, other fruits, and what must be some stems. The palate shows very light tannin structure with mouth watering acidity. Medium weight with sweet fruit. Nice clean finish. Really tasty now and a nice wine. Not showing a lot of complexity but tastes good. Paired nicely with duck breast and mushroom risoto. I don't expect this will improve in the cellar. Drink now and over the next year or two.

The wine looks Rosy colored. It smells like Strawberry, Cherry, and Cinnamon. The body is Light/Medium.

A bit syrupy, but good Pinot for the price.
