Baileyana Winery Grand Firepeak Cuvee Pinot Noir 2017 Review
For $24 you will get all the things: cherry fruit and a skosh of vanilla with some mocha and a hint of beetroot. It's under the screw cap and easy to drink, but it's not the most balanced or complex, with the palate muting some of the nose aromas. There is a slight bitter note present in the wine as well but it's not offensive, which makes this a good party wine.
