Wine Review: This dark red colored Pinot Noir from Davis Estates opens with a very inviting maraschino cherry and cedar bouquet with hints of cinnamon, grenadine, and teaberry. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with integrated medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is nicely balanced, round, and very approachable. The flavor profile is a teaberry and red plum blend with notes of cinnamon and cedar. We also detected hints of rhubarb, black pepper, vanilla, and a touch of dried strawberry. The finish is dry, and its flavors, acidity and moderate tannins stick around nicely. The Tasting Panel would pair this Pinot with a salmon burger. Enjoy - KWGTP
