nice well made pinot, very red fruit driven in a balanced way neither tart nor candied, not allot of complexity but an enjoyable drinking experience

Light, fruity with strong cherry and a hint of grilled mushroom aroma. Tasted at a Portland wine bar, so the bottle had probably had some significant time to breathe before serving.

Not even worth finishing the bottle... Thin... light in color... no depth whatsoever... not even much taste... poured out the 1st bottle and giving away the 2nd...

A lighter pinot, definitely more Oregon and less blockbuster California in style. I found it initially pretty uninteresting, but with time, and paired with food (some mild cheeses), this wine's brighter fruit flavors (strawberry, cherry) really came through. Recommended for the fresh flavors it brought in contrast to the weightier food, but not that compelling to drink alone.

Light ruby color. Cherry and herb notes with cherries and spice on the finish.

A little tight upon first opening. As it warmed up and sat for awhile opened up. Simple wine. Strawberry and earth on the nose. Strawberry on the palate.

Lots of funk when first opened, this wine needs at least 30 minutes. Once things settle down there's still a little burnt rubber aroma along with mint and strawberry. Palate is pure strawberry from beginning to end. Maybe lacking a little backbone, and certainly not earth shattering, but at anything under $20 I think this is a good value. Since I paid $16, I'm a happy camper.

thin, boring, barn-yardy but in an offensive way. really not worth it.
