Wine Review: This ruby colored Pinot opens with a moderate black raspberry bouquet with a hint of tobacco. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, balanced, classy and smooth. The flavor profile is a mild oak integrated red currant with a touch of black raspberry and green pepper. The finish is dry and its mild tannins make it rather food friendly. The panel suggested pairing this tasty Pinot with duck confit or a thyme seasoned roast pork tenderloin. Enjoy - Ken
Winemaker Notes: The 2009 Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir offers aromas of lush cherry and red plum, with subtle hints of black tea and cola. On the palate, avors are ripe and elegant, centering on red cherry and spice with a touch of earthiness and dark chocolate. A rich, juicy mid-palate and vivid acidity lead to plush tannins on the finish.
