A great value in a big red Pinot Noir where red fruit rules the day, joined by notes of vanilla, dry earth minerality and a touch of root beer. The finish brings the earthiness into clear focus, and the finish is well knit together. White or red meat, or in between, this is a budget friendly winner. A Platinum Award winner at the 2019 Monterey International Wine Competition.
