| Likeness | Good: dark berry, mocha, and soft tannin stay in a Cabernet register rather than grape juice. | Convincingly wine-like for the category: Pinot fruit on the nose, a finish that lingers like red wine, and a middle that is slightly thin. | Cherry, cranberry, and a light earth note read as Pinot. The palate is less convincing: tart fruit and soft tannin on a slightly thin frame. |
