We had this at a tasting a while back and enjoyed it thoroughly so I grabbed a bottle. Strawberry, cola, and a bit of funk on the nose.
A nice bit of strawberry and raspberry, plus all sorts of wood, dirt, earth, barnyard and the like. Subtle, earthy, and overall a mild, yet deep, wine. A nice bit of acid would make this worth with almost any food but I would avoid serving it with anything too heavy. Personally, I think it stands wonderfully on its own.
The finish lingers for some time, notes of cherry and earth.
An outstanding subtle Pinot Noir and a bargain at the $17 pricetag. I would strongly recommend this one for someone looking for an elegant red wine.
