Wanting to try a Pinot Noir tonight I picked up this North Coast Pinot for $19.99. Looking at the beautiful ruby red color draws me in right away. The aromas a wafting over me with beautiful red fruit of strawberry and raspberry. There is also hints of mushroom and a bit of caramel. Wonderful aromas keep me wanting to just continue breathing its nuances. On the palate you get good strawberry, tart cherry, mushroom, dusty soul with a creamy texture. There is good medium acidity and smooth tannins. This pinot is a bit on the lighter side and could use a bit more complexity. That being said, this is a very drinkable pinot that I would buy again.
