Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Here’s a lighter-bodied Pinot that appeals for its direct cherry, cola, root beer and spicy flavors. It’s silky, with a briny finish. Drink now.

Smells a little musty and mushroomy, but airing brings out the underlying cherry flavors. In the mouth, this wine is fairly tannic and tight, but once again, those cherries reveal themselves after you swallow. Likely to improve with six months or a year of aging.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Very dry, rather tart and acidic, but the polished cherry and blackberry flavors are juicy and enjoyable, and are sweetened with a dash of oak. This wine desperately needs a big, thick cut of meat to tame it. Try with a sirloin steak.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A little pruny or raisiny, and also hot, although there are some succulent black cherry flavors in the middle. But there’s something tough and rugged about this wine, and it does leave a burn behind.
