Clean nose of strawberries, a touch of mint, a touch of alcoholic prick.

Good fruit, some savory, herbal earthiness, but fairly high toned. Youthful tannin, a bit simple, maybe a tad hot, but a decent, easy drinking Pinot.

I've had worse for more $.

Good finish.

Overall I liked it, a fair value, maybe a bit overpriced.
