Alex Hunt | Appealing strawberry and blackberry fruit aromas with a slightly confected redcurrant-jelly overlay. Soft tannin but bright acidity make for an easy-drinking yet refreshing mouthful. It’s simple in the flavor, and the slightly jammy fruit could get wearing after a few glasses. Overall, decent. | 85

Andrew Jefford | Deep cherry-red; no opacity. Fresh, sweet cherry fruit here, too: lots of simple charm. Smooth, lush, soft, simple, and attractively gluggable red, but it doesn’t really lift off as fine Pinot. Certainly varietal, nonetheless, and probably very good value. | 84

Anthony Rose | Mid-ruby, bright, youthful in color, attractively fresh and bright cherry-sweet strawberryish fragrance, subtle sub-threshold oak and pretty, mellow-textured red-berry fruit quality, with a lively, refreshing acidity and enough tannic grip for presence and texture, though relatively soft and seamless on the finish. | 89
