Wine Review: This slightly cloudy and medium ruby colored Pinot Noir from Goldeneye is excellent! It opens with a dried strawberry and cola bouquet with a hint of brown sugar. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, round, polished and fresh. The flavor profile is strawberry and cola blend with notes of loam and cinnamon. We also detected hints of mushrooms, dried herbs, and lingonberry. The finish is dry, and its moderate fine tannins linger for quite a long time. The Tasting Panel would pair this Pinot with Sheri's sausage stuffed mushrooms, Osso buco or with mushroom risotto. You could also drink it on its own. Enjoy – KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: Located in the cold "Deep End" of the Anderson Valley, "The Narrows" has yielded a unique and evocative Pinot Noir with aromas of blackberry, ripe plum, forest floor, anise, and cherry-cola. On the palate, this rich and supple wine strikes an ideal balance between fresh fruit and savory spice, revealing juicy flavors of red and black cherry and layers of wild mushrooms, black tea, allspice, and blackberry.
