Sunday, January 18, 2009 - Pinot Smackdown 2009 (Barrington IL, Wally's house): nose: understated nose with black cherries, floral tones, and nice spice tones to compliment it. Very lifting and rather subtle that is enjoyable to smell and just let it come to you

taste: very classy and medim/light feel with black cherries, plums, spice, and floral tones. Very vibrant and subtle on the palate with nice medium acidity to give it some backbone

overall: A very elegant and classy pinot. Nice and vibrant and having a richness in the tones without being overdone. Good acidity to let it age a bit and see where this goes, but a very enjoyable wine at this point in time too
