The actual ABV of this wine is a bit of a mystery. The printed label on the bottle indicates 14%, but there is an added sticker that says 12.2%. Meanwhile, the LCBO website says 13.5%! Which one is right? Dunno, but I'm guessing the 12.2% figure is most accurate. In any case, this is pretty basic stuff. No glaring faults, but overall I'd sum it up as serviceable but nondescript and lacking in character. At $22, it's cheap for an Oregon pinot, but still no bargain in my book.
