Really beautiful wine in a sort of workhorse kinda way. What I mean is that if you like ripe fruit and new worldy wines, this pinot is for you. I love this style of wine. It's tasty and fun without getting anything like too serious. (And some burgundy lovers will hate it precisely for that reason.) Cherry, raspberry, and plum on the nose leads to deliciousness on the palate. Very limited earth and spice and a surprisingly long finish round out this impressive wine. And, just in case it needs saying, the QPR on this wine is amazing.)

(Luigi Bosca Reserva Pinot Noir) #1; VaynerPAZZZ; COLOR-quite dark; NOSE-a little earthiness; a little graphite; clearly some sour cherries busting through; a little grainy and earth; cellar dust; good classic Pinot nose; a little tight; PALATE-really good firm tannins; a little big; if tasted blind, I would not think that it was 100% Pinot (would think it had some syrah blended); a little mint on the back-end (like a cabernet); there are clearly some really firm, bright tannins on the back-end that I like, but this wine does not appeal to me overall; it's half pregnant (half Pinot / half shiraz); but this wine does have a delicious factor; a little milk chocolate on the back-end; it's solid, but not varietally accurate; a little disjointed and awkward; JM-90; GV-87

Pehmeä, jopa miedon oloinen viin. Erinomainen nautiskelu viini.

Decent hardier pinot for the money but doesn't hold up long or even under vacuum overnight.
