A gift from a friend and one that has had me scratching my head in surprise. This is a really fruity wine - all ripe black fruits, cherries and plums. Very intense on the nose and palate. It's definitely a pinot noir from the New World but it almost seems to have a sweet edge to it.. I've checked the technical specs and it only has 2g of residual sugar but there is something to the wine that almost makes it seem sweet. Maybe it's the combination of medium body and relatively low acidity. All in all I enjoyed drinking it and it's a good solid commercial wine.
