Wine Review: This ruby colored Pinot Noir from the Sonoma Coast opens with a cranberry and pomegranate bouquet with hints of raspberry and rhubarb. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, round, fresh and bright. The flavor profile is an oak and red plum blend with notes of tea and black pepper. I also detected hints of loam and strawberry in the aftertaste. The finish is dry, and its flavors, gentle acidity and friendly tannins linger nicely. I would pair this versatile Pinot with pork tenderloin with roasted figs. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Aromas of raspberry, cranberry, black licorice, and exotic tea notes. Flavors of red cherry, plum, and boysenberry, subtle hints of espresso and cocoa nib underpin notes of spice and toast. Firm yet integrated tannins and bright acidity drives a long finish. The bold red fruits in the Pinot Noir pairs nicely with bacon-wrapped stuffed dates, and light and airy chocolate mousse.
