Cloves, anise, strawberry/cherry, a lovely nose. Soft/supple mouthfeel but finishes extremely astringent w/ charcoal flavors. This is a quality pinot but i'm not a huge fan of the finish.

One of the best Pinot's I have had. Starts off smooth and ends with an explosion of spices with a medium finish.

Thought this wine had a great nose, consisting of some damp, earthy flower bed, with hints of strawberry and other fruits.
The mouthfeel and taste was nice, some nice spice, well-balanced. It finished a bit flat, I think we might have decanted it for a little too long.
Overall, I thought it was well-priced at Trader Joe's ... one of the better pinot's I've had.
