Cherry and raspberry on the nose. Palate is light and fruity. Decent finish.
Decent value for the cost.

It tastes predominantly like star fruit to me, quite a bit more tart than other Pinot Noirs I've had. I don't get the cherry or sweet vanilla oak notes suggested by the back of the label, but there is a mild spice to it. The body is rather thin.
