Tasting-- Grand Cru
Variety: pinot noir
Region: California
Country: USA
Year: 2014
Price: $5.95
Winery Review: Garnet color. Aromas of black cherry, plum jam, rich dark soil, and violet honey with a lightly tannic, lively, dry medium-to-full body and a tingling, complex, medium-long black cherry, rich garden soil, crushed plum, and cinnamon toast finish with medium tannins and moderate oak. Dense, dark and chewy with earthy complexity, balancing the luscious jammy fruit qualities of new world with earthy qualities of old world wines
My Review: smells like an old wooden basement, hints of wood and a mossy or a dewy smell to it. It had a woody, an oak or some hardwood, strong taste to it. It had a full taste to it and hit the sides of my tongue. The after taste had a sharp alcoholic feel to it. It was a good wine and a full bodied that i feel would go well with food. Though i would recommend having it alone
