Paired well with beef ribs. Has a spice to it with a peppery finish. A light color but still nice

Medium deep ruby wide watery pink rim . Quite sweet and ripe black cherry , violet , touch of alcohol noticeable . On the palate quite sweet attack , those ripe black cherries , dried herbs, strawberry jam . Quite rounded and cloying on the finish , acidity can’t balance the sweet fruit or the high alcohol . Pretty short also , drink now and over the next 3 years

It’s a very different Pinot Noir. A little deeper than most. It’s good but I would go for something different next time.

Nothing special. Drinkable, but only as a curiosity (pinot noir from Alsace).
