Bright medium ruby red and a clear translucency with a lovely clean strawberry and cinnamon nose. Sweet grace and elegance, mild acids and light round tannins well-balanced to the berry and cherry fruit set on a base of cola and moist forest floor.
This wine is delightfully well-integrated that is both big (14% alcohol) yet nifty and nimble with matching fresh fruit. Flavors sustain over a lingering bottle with round and happy finish of ripe strawberry and a bit of cranberry suffused with a whiff of cinnamon.

Light-to-medium ruby in color, this Pinot is focused on cherry, cinnamon, cola and loamy earth aromas. The wine is elegant and graceful on the palate, with low-to-medium acidity, light tannins, well-integrated alcohol (listed as 14.0%) and flavors which mirror the nose. These same flavors carry on throughout the middle palate and medium-length finish. Alexander Valley Vineyards is known for making "user-friendly" wines at attractive prices. This bottling is no exception. Drink now-2016.
