There are mixed reviews of this wine here so I won’t belabor it, but I’ll add a little bit.

There are notes of lavender on the nose.  Mostly cherry flavors on the palate that you get from Pinot.

It’s an easy drinking California Pinot.  It lacks any spice, but is pretty well balanced, smooth, if not a bit big on alcohol.  Overall it’s certainly good.

I purchased it after a man in the Oakland store told me he saw this at one of Alice Waters’s restaurants.  Most likely because this vineyard practices organic farming and sustainability.  Figured, why not?

Just had it with Indian food.

If you’re a Cali Pinot fan you’ll be happy with this.  Hope there’s some left.  There was yesterday (11/7).
