Casablanca Valley Pinot Noir
Tasted kinda like a Sonoma Coast Pinot to me. But it's Chilean.

Good acid marred by a sweetness.

Gets a little too funky on the nose for my liking. Sort of murky black fruit notes (or is it red? Hard to say.) behind a ubiquitous oak cover.

Mar 16th, 2014The initial aroma is not particularly significant. Traces of soil, earthy, mildly ripe berries sitting on leather. Slightly spicy with blueberries and a gripping tannin that lingers at the back of the pallet. Reasonably priced at $16.99, though I have experienced more tantalizing wines at the same price. I would advise time to sit and mingle with the air. Certainly worth the experience.

Mar 28th, 2015Really smooth, but slightly peppery. Light to medium bodied. Great for homey Italian meals.
