Bought this on recommendation from my main wine guy.
Beautiful magenta color, on opening a little bret on the nose, which thankfully blew off to reveal ripe black cherry, strawberry and mineral notes. Like flavors of strong black cherry and strawberry, some earth and mushroom on a medium long finish. Nice Burgundy for $20 but I've had equal California pinot for $15 or less. 12.5% Alc/vol.
