This is a nice and easy drinking Pinot Noir from Mendocino County in California.
Nose of cherries, blueberries, spices, light earth and black pepper.
Medium plus in body and fruit forward with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with cherries, currants, sweet strawberries, raspberries, spices and light chocolates.
Nice and good right out of the bottle with a screw top.
Alcohol is nicely integrated and over 14%, so watch out as it is dangerously easy drinking. 😉
Aged in French oak barrels for 8 months.
I had it with cheeses and light appetizers by the lake.
14.2% alcohol by volume.
88 points.
$16.
