Wine Review: This dark red colored Pinot Noir from Chamisal opens with a Dr. Pepper bouquet with hints of pomegranate and forest floor. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with medium acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced and bright. The flavor profile is a tasty craisin and red plum blend with notes of red raspberry tea and nutmeg. I also detected hints of loam. The finish is dry and its mild tannins and flavors drift away nicely. This Pinot would pair well with a Thanksgiving sandwich. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: Light ruby in color, this Pinot Noir is expressive on the nose with vibrant notes of cherry, raspberry, and cinnamon. On the palate, the wine is bright and juicy with light tannins and a fresh finish.
