Great Pinot at a great price. Fruity and fruit forward. Great with halibut at Devon in Chicago

Bright Cherry, a bit of chalk, peppery finish - all well balanced.

Mostly fruit forward (cherries and blackberries), with some earth and a slight vanilla lift.

Nicht sclecht. Pleasant light fruit, faint mineral. Not a disappointment, but I expected a bit more structure at this price point. A $10 beaujolais drinks a bit better. I would drink it again, though.
