The higher alcohol content of this wine made this slightly more bitter than I would like, but still quite good! Very good value. — 4 years ago
This is a big fruit forward wine. Probably the best DS I’ve had in awhile and ‘14s. Black licorice on the nose and a lot of baked dark fruit. Palate is well balance. Fruit, acid and great texture. — 6 years ago
Raisins and leather on the nose. Slightly sweet. Taste begins sweet and caramel; very full. Slightly alcohol forward. Dries out late with hints of oak and smoke. As someone else said, it's like the offspring of bourbon and rum. — 7 years ago
Aldi Pinot. Robust for Pinot, one of my favorites. — 8 years ago
Great Pinot , tastes like it from Burgundy. Red fruit, not sweet, white pepper, light tannins. Very well rounded. Did not get the mushroom forest nuances that others are describing.  — 7 months ago

Forest floor, sour cherry and fennel on the nose. Dark fruit, light spice and black tea. Smoky oak finish — 5 years ago
Tastes of blackberry and a little cocoa. The wine is velvety smooth with an excellent finish. This wine fights way above its weight. I agree with other users that it seems like a wine costing $25 or more, not $10. — 7 years ago

I love Rosè from Bandol! Combination of Grenache, Mourvedre, and Cinsault lends to a bit of richness. Nice salinity. Herbs, raspberries, cantaloupe, and slate. Presents with a nice "your tongue is stuck" to the roof of your mouth finish. Really enjoyable for under $15! — 3 months ago
