This was full of bright red cherries supported by even brighter acid, a medium body, smooth but present tannins, and a meaty savoriness that reminded me of prosciutto--correct, delicious, and repeatable!

Bright, and juicy with acid carrying the black and red berries for an eternity. May be light and simple for some but I love these kinds of wines. Far more interesting than generic entry level Pinot noir.
