A nose of cassis and cherry

Light to medium bodied, classic twig and branch Pinot combination, mellowed red fruits, strong, yet non obtrusive acidity with just a hint that this wine has touched a stave for any period of time. Great use on the neutral oak here. From Santa Maria, CA. So there is just a touch of that plump ripe fruit from SoCal, yet not enough to annoy. This is a very well made wine, and though it is labeled 14 %. The heat went away as soon as it got some airtime.

Good QPR. Maj capps hit the right notes in his review. Was a bit better on day two when the alcohol was less obtrusive. Would buy again.
