  initial strong alcoholic, fumy quality. Burns on the palate afterwards. Not too much fruit. Waited too long?

  Three years after my first tasting of this wine and bottle age has given it a nice roundness. Pours a semi transparent pomegranate purple. Nose is very complex with black cherry, strawberry jam and a touch of tea. Mouthfeel is incredibly rich and creamy with a sweet tang of orange julius, cherry, strawberry, tea and vanilla. Finish sticks to your throat.

  I've never been disappointed with a Varner wine and this is no exception. This pinot noir was dark in color, with currant and dark fruit on the nose. Smooth with a nice finish. Great value for the price.
