Benton-Lane
Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
Tonight's Pinot Noir is from the Willamette Valley and from a winery that is very consistent with their wines. I like Benton-Lane vary much and they have never let me down. I can count on a nice burgundian wine each and every time.
On the nose there is cherry, raspberry, clove, a bit of caramel and cola.
On the palate there is nice fruit with notes of tart cherry, cranberry, red raspberry and nice mushrooms which I really like.
There is a medium + acidity, medium sandy tannins with a medium finish.
I wouldn't hesitate purchasing their wine for any occasion.

Had it Musso & Frank for like $60...great deal at old classic and the Fettuccini Alfredo (invented here) was pretty damn good...light with right amount of cheese and soft chewy noodles! Wine went well too!
