The nose on this wine smells like cow shit and bandaids and some super sweet strawberries. The palate is as polished as the label. A value for pinot, but only for pinot.

Nov 29th, 2014Barnyard and bandaid the first night. So much funk it was off putting. Better the second night but still not my wine style. Don’t want to revisit this one.
