Tasting note:

Vintages Wine Panel: A Pinot Noir chock full of aromas of strawberry, blueberry, cherry and earth tones. Dry with very vibrant fruit supported by ripe tannins and fresh acidity. A very well-made, approachable, food-friendly Pinot Noir. Medium bodied with a medium-long finish. Could be cellared 1-3 years, but would be fine tonight. My note: Stunning for the money. I dare you to find a better pinot on the market at this price. Lovely ripe cherry fruit with some spices. Medium-bodied and velvet smooth. Food matches: grilled salmon, pork roast.

Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
sit. sip. savour. rated this wine as 82/100 with the following review:

this garnet red Pinot Noir offers aromas of smoke, earth, ripe dark fruit & floral/rose. the flavours begin out somewhat alcoholic/hot/sharp then waft into earthy dark fruit. medium acid & tannins lend to ageing.
