  Maybe it was the hint from the label, but this Pinot had rose petal aromas and tastes. I've read wine reviews that mention rose petals but the actual aroma and flavor has alluded me until I tasted this lovely wine. It lacked some depth and complexity resulting in the rating. Dark cherry flavors and well-balance with decent acidity making it quite bright. Thanks for introducing me to the aromas and tasted of rose petals!

  Second Sunday Group: 2010 Chateauneuf-du-Pape (R&D's): Notes of rhubarb, cherry and dark pinot fruit. The palate follows the bouquet. Good.

  Lots of rhubarb with w bit of cherry underneath. Ripe, and a bit monolithic and awkward. Somewhat fat.

  Deep ruby garnet color with notes of sour cherry, candied cherry, nutmeg and cinnamon. Medium-bodied with good acidity and balance, featuring flavors of cranberry, cherry, clove and cinnamon. Pairs very nicely with the glazed pork belly. 89-90 pts.
