2011 Calera Pinot Noir Central Coast

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

85 Points

Sunday, January 19, 2014 - Tried twice, first time with mushroom Risotto, second time with beef steak.

This wine is young and prefer open 30mins before drinking. Very light, easy going wine. When I'm not feeling too well this is the one that pops into my mind.

On nose you find a lot of berry, some hint of peach. Taste mineral, sweet, most importantly, something lacking, which is why I give it 85.

However once you pair with food the lacking part just gone!! I will give 90+ rating if pair with food. Suddenly upgrade a few levels and can find some trace of the Jensen vineyard.

Bought a case of 12 after tasting first bottle. Solid value and good for casual drinking.
