Started off good, but man did it fade fast. Good fruit and spiced quickly turned into brown sugar and copper pennies. No bueno.

The 14.8% alcohol comes through on the aroma, but this is definitely a plush and juicy Pinot Noir. Red fruit with dark undertones. Cinnamon and baking spice in the finish. Loved this one.

Not a lot of body in this one. Starts out super blah and then the heat hits you. Not overly good. I couldn't drink too much of this.
