Central Coast Pinot Noir
Central Coast, California, USA
Deep ruby color with damp earth, mixed berry, spice and kiss of cola aromas. On the palate, it's medium-bodied with a nice balance of acidity and supple mouthfeel. It exhibits concentrated morello cherry, cola, and spice flavors. Medium-long finish.

An #ava blend and ready to drink. Enjoyable but lacks complexity @loringwine #wine #thirstythursday

2008 vintage. Surprising in a good way. Dark dried fruit. Dusty and leather.

Every time I saw this bottle on my CT inventory I thought "I should have opened that back with the others in 2009 and 2010" and passed it by. If I had this blind, I probably would have guessed a darker Grenache or a lighter bodied Syrah. Quite tasty on its own, just lacking Pinot character at this point. Actually tasted similar to the No Girls Grenache profile I was expecting in that bottle, without the funk of course.
