My Review: I really enjoyed this Pinot Noir for how cheap it is. The nose was that of burned or charred raisins and had a very berry smell with some spice on top. It was a fairly smooth wine and was buttery and creamy on the finish. I tasted a lot of fresh juicy cherries. This wine did not leave my mouth feeling dry at all.
I did not taste this wine with food.
