Flora, dry with such a delightful floral bouquet that there is a tinge of sweetness

An amazingly smooth ripe fruity medium bodied wine.
Juicy
Slender

This would have mass appeal.

Definitely not a big wine, but certainly to be enjoyed when a more delicate flavour is desired

Moderate value for the money, at $17,95 I understand is a great pricing for a Piorat, but, I personally want more punch for the dollars - just a personal thing

It's my first Piorat, and not my last

Delicious
Strand out
Smooth
Refined
Jammy notes with no over bearing segments

Would buy again for sure, but, thought I paid $18 and I was in love. I think I see noe I paid $25. Feeling a bit like my my love afair is corrupt. This wine won my lusting under false pretenses

This is a very yummy wine.
Who knew that horse smell could be appetizing, never mind intriguing.

Starts with a nose of wet leather, but in the most appealing of ways.

On the buy Again list for sure. At 15 clams, I have had worse at twice the price and not very often better for less

Very good wine,
Fruity, full flavor, not overbearing.
I would not say that this is a 'BIG' red, but ruby red, plumy, incredible value

$10.95

For the price, three is good value. I'd buy it again but was not overly impressed.
Granted, I paired it with nothing and did not decant, so it may be better than I give credit.
Nice mid bodied warm, slight spice. I can tate the berry
Smooth long finish wi a clean, non fuzzy After
