A perfectly awful Pinot Noir. No really, perfectly awful.

Too soon, I've had another Chardonnay that came across as bland at best. Again it's drinkable, but you might not be willing to tell anyone about it the next day.

I picked this up on sale (a while back) at World Market. It's best feature: a lovely and lingering astringency that seems to go on for a while.

A very good effort for this wine, considering it is a 2007. Quite sip able.

An all too brief a taste at a recent wine event. This one needed a little help.
