Wow, just had this with a meal of lamb & eggplant lasagna. Until tonight, Tempranillo was our go-to wine for this meal. Enjoying another glass as dessert. Not as earthy as expected, but the hints of spice balanced well. Overall a bit lighter than other pinots. Beautiful color, but definitely not dark or deep to the eye. Picked this tasty critter up on a tasting tour several months ago and am glad I did. I can imagine this going well with pheasant.
