Served at Thanksgiving table when sat down for the actual dinner. We know from experience that Pinot Noir is a good pairing for Thanksgiving. But, that also has its downside. I did not even get a taste, as I started with a glass of Cabernet, and the Phelps pinot was gone by the time I finished that glass. So it was clearly a hit.

Nice Pinot. Phelps Quarter Moon is, I think, the best of their Pinot vineyards. The wine is not too heavy, shows nose and palate of cherries and other red berries and a little spice. The finish is medium and smooth. Pairs nicely with a pork loin.

Wonderful wine for Thanksgiving. Just the right body to stand up to turkey and trimmings without overpowering. Big hit at the table of 8!
