Being in yet another Pinot Noir mood, I grabbed this one from the wine fridge having completely forgotten why and where I bought it. I get a bit of that earthy forest floor on the nose.
After about an hour or so, I got a bit of oak, some tart cherry, and a bit of acid – not much else really. As it opened more, notes of cola and earth began to come through and the acid really zings – almost suggesting a touch of effervescence.
Some raspberry on the finish but it fades quickly.
It looks like the local shop has this for $13, so I assume I paid somewhere in that neighborhood. I'd absolutely buy this again, but either let it pick up some age or throw it in the decanter for a couple hours before drinking it.
