though i am reserving 5 stars for moments when the angels sing, i was tempted with this one. being new to pinot noir i will hold off for now. lots of raspberry and cherry, medium body and somehow powerful. the last glass was so charming i wished i had lingered a little longer in the drinking of this. next time i will open an hour before i am ready to drink. super delish.
