Really conflicted about this wine. On the one hand, this is not the normal flavor profile for a Pinot Noir. On the other hand, it's hard not to love the delicious plum and smoke flavors, especially given the relative lack of tannins. This was a velvety, sensuous experience. Paired exceptionally and equally well with turkey noodle soup, jerk chicken, and brown sugar ham.

For $10, this Pinot holds up well. But you only get a little more than what you pay for.

I'd never guess this to be a Pinot in a blind tasting. However, it is generous in dark cherry fruitiness, and would be a nice pizza or barbecue wine.
