Community Tasting Note

Monday, July 11, 2011 - So I definitely have a minority report on this one, even though some of my favorites rate it strongly. Dense ruby. This is quite extracted and fruit with black cherry and blueberry. There is a good bit of oak influence showing and a hint of earth, but really very little to me. Quite full bodied for a pinot, fruit forward, but just not much that really seemed like pinot noir to me. Did not at all to me seem like a SRH pinot. Not really heavy handed, but just lacking in any finesse or nuance. I tried it in different glasses, at different temps, and giving it more air time, but this never tasted to me like more than a middling $23 pinot, much less one at about twice that price. Maybe a weak bottle, but I can only report what I experience, which I'm afraid is mostly disappointment. 86-87
