This wine is ready to go. A pop and pour pinot. 2011 gave us very delicate pinot noir from Carneros. This one has a medium density, with some mint and cherry cordial spice and hint of cinnamon and clove. Opened by Dan at an unscheduled "fourth friday" meetup today. Very enjoyable, and would go very well with a red/green/yellow pepper spread with some hummus and other dips that we unfortunately didn't have. Very nice wine.

Pale colored, with a distinct mineral and strawberry aroma. Taste brings forth a well balanced wine, with similar flavor profile, with mildly tart cherry thrown in. Very good accompaniment to salmon.

While there are touches of cherry fruit and cola notes, this Pinot Noir is thin and light in flavor. Typical of the tough 2011 vintage...however some wines suffered more than others.

Pale ruby in color. Notes of tart cherry and cranberry. A slight mineral taste up front. Medium body and tannins.
