This is excellent Pinot Noir that is absolutely true to the grape and the region in which it is produced. For a lesser price Oregon Pinot, this absolutely competes with many of the more expensive and well known producers products. Classic Pinot Noir nose, body and flavors with predominant cherry raspberry coming through nicely and even the color is right. Definitely better than most anything from California. I would definitely recommend and buy again! — 3 days ago

As good as advertised! The nose permeates the air immediately upon uncorking! And what a nose it is! The ripe fruits just burst out of the bottle before you finish pouring the first few ounces. Full bodied, great mouthfeel, mild tannins but enough to think it could age a bit very nicely. But, why wait when it’s drinking so well already. Even though it sells in the $65-70 range nationally, my local wine store has it for under $40 which makes it quite the bargain. Will definitely be stocking up!! — 3 months ago

Good solid Cab for a low price. Nothing special but good enough for a daily drinker. — 5 months ago

Mediocre at best. Very disappointing Pinot especially at the price point and region reputation. Hopefully never drink it again. — 19 days ago

Disappointing. Having visited this winery and tasting several of their offerings, this one is a disappointment especially as compared to their lesser rated wines. No depth. The finish is thin and does not linger as it should for a Gran Selezione Chianti Classico. The nose is there as are the first few sips but as the wine sits in the glass, it seems to actually dissipate any further flavors. Oh well. I still like other Le Cinciole wines. — 2 months ago

We tried to like it but, no. We are just not Rose people I guess. This is not the first time we’ve tried but hopefully it’s the last! This wine is a fairly highly rated Rosè so I have to assume that it’s the type and style of wine that is just not for us. — 4 months ago

Now this is Pinot Noir the way it was meant to be! Floral, more subtle and less in your face like Meomi or Belle Glos. The nose is shy upon opening but after a couple of decanter days, it’s really come alive! Excellent with pork or salmon and turkey, it’s great for sipping or pairing. The mouthfeel is excellent and the flavors linger long after your last sip. Never thought California Pinot could be so authentic tasting. — a month ago

Excellent qpr! Upon opening, it’s somewhat subdued but half an hour later, wow! What happened?! And with food, roasted red meats, hard cheeses, grilled vegetables, it really comes alive! This is as good or better than cabs costing 2-3 times as much. Great daily drinker!! — 4 months ago

Delicious! Great nose, somewhat smoky with a hint of tobacco, dark fruits and a lingering finish. This Sabet would pair well with any meats including shrimp or salmon. Could easily be mistaken for a Chateauneuf-du-Pape. — 5 months ago
