Ruby in color with light intensity and a wide reddish rim.
Pretty nose of blueberries, raspberries, spices, light oak, cola and black pepper.
Medium bodied with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with raspberries, cherries, spices, bitter herbs, black pepper, light oak, earth and black tea.
Short finish with bitter herbs and soft tannins.
This 6 year old Pinot Noir from Russian River Valley, needed 30 minutes of airtime to open up properly, but good right out of the bottle too. Will not get better so drink up.
Fruit forward, soft and smooth. Showing nice complexity at this point.
Easy drinking and good by itself or with food. Paired nicely with cheeses and crackers.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
89 points.
$40.
