100% PN from Monterey County. Expressive nose of red fruit and smoke. Lush and fruity. Nice price, popular style.

Super meaty! Smoked salami on the nose, follows with hearty fruit.

I'm used to Oregon Pinot Noir's, that being said, this is a nice, rich, woody Pinot. Not as light as OR Pinots but just as drinkable.
