Alto Valle del Rio Negro Pinot Noir

Did not really recognize the variety, no strawberry and cherry candy, bitterness and a feel of overripe.

Nose is forest floor and pretty, palate is pretty dead. Maybe over the hill.

Nice balance of fruit & earth

Wine works as cold medicine, right?

Very easy drinking. Fairly light. Strawberries, raspberry, cherry, maybe a bit of apricot. Not a lot of depth though. Pretty static flavor.

Elegant critter label. Snowy birds. Smells like cooked Pinot from the New World. Smoke and cherry candies. Kinda an orangish-red color. The flavors are mouth filling and meaty. Smoked meats and slightly burnt toast covered with a marmalade of strawberry and blood oranges. It’s also got some nice grapefruit peel bitterness. Smooth finish. Lacks zip, but it’s enjoyable and hearty for Pinot. Maybe a bit too aged and slightly over-oaked.

Light medium body, very nice

Dried and leather, maybe the bottle is old?

A little too funky for my tastes.

Medium light body. Plum red color. Complex medium plus nose with tons of mushroom and earthy musk. Old world inspired burgundy style with dark cherries. Low alcohol. Good tanin structure. Balanced tight finish. Light mouthfeel. Not too much fruit. More earthy vegetable but not overpowering. Medium low acid. Would pair great with food.
