Purchased at Trader Joes in May 2019, drunk soon after.

Megan drunk this on the first overnight with the Heart of Gold van. There might be a review somewhere, but I'm unable to find it at this point.

To quote the bottle:
<blockquote>
The Gavilan Mountain Range is home to the Chalone Appellation, a remote vineyard area rooted in unique volcanic soils. These soils, underlain by limestone and granite, resemble those in France's Côte d'Or, and inspired the founders of the Chalone Vineyard to craft a legacy of Burgundian-style wines. Gavilan carries on this tradition with a primary focus on Chalone Vineyard's Dijon, vineyard plantings from the 1990s. The result is a Pinot Noir that offers an early drinking expression of the Chalone appellation, with fresh berry aromas, elegant fruit flavors, and silky mouthfeel upon release.
