Shop Review:
Medium bodied and rich with aromas of black cherry and blueberry.
My Review:
From the shop review, I was able to find the black cherry and blueberry, but there was something else I can only note as "blech". On the nose this wine starts out sweet and fruity, and then something happens in my nose, and I don't like it. Even though I don't find this wine aromatically enjoyable, the Pinot Noir went down very smooth. The front end is very creamy and on mid pallet, the cream softens even more and the fruit comes out to play. At first I found myself heavily disliking this wine, but after a few days, the creamy flavor mellows out, and the harshness in the finish goes away and leaves a quite enjoyable wine.
