California Pinot Noir

2/9/25 - finishing this wine from the weekend before, while watching the Chiefs/Eagles in the Superbowl!

Bought this on sale. We were surprised at how much we liked it! 8.8

Not my favourite, but very light and easy to drink.

No tanins, smooth flavor. Easy to drink

Simple, smooth, drinkable pinot noir.

Pale ruby in color; cherries, raspberries, and baking spices on the nose; medium plus acidity; low tannins; tastes like strawberries, black cherries, crushed gravel, and a hint of vanilla with a long finish. Nellie says it's ok. I like it. Better after decanting for 30 minutes. Tastes a little sweet. I think there's some residual sugar, but it may just be the fruit flavors. It's definitely a fruit bomb.

Dark garnet color. Smells like cherry Life Savers. Sweet cherry, blackberry, raspberry, plum, baking spice, caramel and cola flavors with a strong note of imitation vanilla extract on the finish. Way over Oaked. (Like liquid smoke was added) No noticeable tannins. Not a fan. Revisited eleven months later. No improvement.
