Had the 2011.
Almost hot in the mouth. Lots of tannin... Definitely taste the Syrah, but there's Carignane, Grenache and some Cab thrown in. Definitely needs to be decanted... Softens up with time. But still not sure I would not recommend at this price point (I paid $28). — 9 years ago
Lovely fruit at top, tannins on finish. For 25 bucks, hard to beat this as an entry level every day burgundy. Will buy again (at Brooklyn Wine Exchange). — 9 years ago
Lovely... with slightly more body than some pinots from this area. Black currants, cherry and some earth make this a great wine for the price. — 8 years ago
Smells like it should...spicey and smokey. Nice for the price! — 9 years ago

Nice fruit at the top with spice in the end. Doesn't taste like 14.5...delicious. — 9 years ago
Surprising strong overall at this price point.
Definitely decant if you have the time. — 9 years ago
Great summer drinker... Throw it the fridge to chill it. Has some good barnyard smells and tastes (and who doesn't like barnyard!). — 9 years ago

Bright red cherry, and not a lot of oak, so taste comes through. Nice value Pinot. — 8 years ago
