I tasted this wine right after Justin's "The Orphan", which is a Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah blend, and I found little difference between the two wines in taste and structure. It showed extracted black cherry and plum, with a nose-singeing 15% ABV, and none of the earthy nuances that you look for in a good Pinot. This did not taste like Pinot Noir, nor was it anywhere close to being worth $47. August 18, 2007
