Tasting | Grand Cru Pinot Noir



Name: Grand Cru
Variety: Pinot Noir
Region: California
Country:  USA
Year: 2013
Price: $6.95

Winery Review: This ruby-colored wine has aromas of raspberry, cherry and a hint of vanilla. Flavors of cherry and plum lead to a soft velvety finish. This wine can be enjoyed by itself. It is also an excellent accompaniment with Brie, goat cheese and smoked salmon. Lamb shanks and pork tenderloin are a favorite main dishes to pair with this wine.

My Review: I had no food with this wine. It smelled smoky and sweet but tasted earthy. It didn't bite very hard so it was still pretty easy to drink. Not bad but I wouldn't necessarily recommend it.
