CrossBarn Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir

Bright cherry, hint of anise, and wonderful balance of acidity. Nicely balanced especially for this area.

At Bonterra

Stewed purple and red fruit, baking spice and black pepper. Round fruity full bodied. OK CA

This needed to open up a bit but is delightful.

Great wine. Smooth and tasty. I had this over Easter and it paired splendidly with my dinner (chicken and potatoes) and surprisingly the cake as well.

Smith and walinsky in Chicago. Very full bodied Pinot, Smooth and delicious. Bob can even drink. $30

One of the best Pinot Noirs I've ever consumed. The color is a beautiful ruby with a thick, bright pink rim. The nose is slightly fruity and light, as one would expect, with hints of cherry and a little minerality. The nose is pleasant, but it could be a little better. Extremely smooth and fruity with a nice balance between sweet and dry. Very soft tannins. If the nose were better this would be 10 stars.

We had 2014. Like it very much. 4-5 grape bunches.
