Community Tasting Note

Monday, February 7, 2011 - My Super Bowl wine. Initially it was quite ripe and fruit forward. Very Californiaish. Jean Gabin would not approve. After 10 minutes of air the acid comes into balance and the wine changes dramatically.
It's a simple wine A few more years of age might improve it. It tastes like a cousin to pinot noir. Not much tannin. Brght red fruits. Nice balance. Short finish. More acid than a typical pinot noir. That maybe makes it more food friendly. I'd drink it with the same foods I have with pinot noir.
A pleasant drink but nothing I'd single out as a recommendation for others. A Louis/Dressner import.
