Most Recent Tasting Note:

Nice on the nose with raspberries and cherries. Soft tannins, which is typical, and nice finish. It's pretty elegant for a cheap wine (about $8), and you can also get it en magnum ($13). This wine is perfect for that salmon salad you've been craving. There's nothing that stands out except that it's nice for a budget and it's better than some Pinot in California I've had for more, but not nearly as good as a Burgundy. 1 Note

Most Recent Tasting Note:

• appearance: medium-deep with a ruby color and average intensity.

• nose: clean nose, below-average intensity, and aromas of spicy cinnamon, sour cherry, black pepper, and hints of creaminess. this wine must have been oaked.

• palate: relatively dry, with low acid and medium tannins, and flavors of black cherry, cloves, tobacco, and a strange tire component. the length is medium.

• overall: a very easy-drinking wine. the 05' date has allowed it to drink even easier. relative complexity with a good body and average finish. the price is just right for this wine. this wine seems quite flexible for not just meat-based dishes, but with certain white-wine type meals as well.

• i give this an 88.
