Not bad for a $7 Pinot. Slightly thin mouthfeel and finish, fruit forward, cherry notes. Not a lot of depth but a decent mid-week open

Fruity with smells of strawberry and red cherry plus some light oak and vanilla. Light ruby appearance. Again cherry on the palate with some stewed notes and light tropical fruit. Reasonable balance albeit it light bodied with a light to moderate length.

TJ's a little sweet when opened, but nice after it breathes.
