Pepperwood Grove California Pinot Noir

Description

Burgundy in color, this Pinot Noir has a very distinct, silky nose of fresh cranberries, roses, and a hint of cedar. Dark and with snappy acidity on the palate, tart red cherry and pomegranate flavors blend with earthy, mushroom notes that evoke Italian terroir of black, volcanic soils. French oak lightly comes through on the mid-palate with nuanced sandlewood flavors, finishing medium-bodied with crisp acidity and a touch of espresso.--Beverage Testing Institute: Pale purple-red hue. Fruit-centered ripe aromas. Rich berryish flavors on the attack, with a medium-bodied palate and moderate acids giving a lush mouthfeel. Drink now. RATED: 84 points (Recommended).
