Tasting - Decoy Pinot Noir

Name: Decoy
Variety: Pinot Noir
Region: Sonoma County
Country: USA
Year: 2012
Price: $20.95

Winery Review: Lovely aromas of ripe strawberry and raspberry, as well as subtle notes of sandalwood and spice. On the palate, it is elegantly structured with abundant red fruit, excellent mid-palate weight and a lingering finish with a hint of fresh earth.

My Review: I am a really big fan of pinot noir and I enjoyed this one a lot. The nose was like a bowl of fresh strawberries with some hints of light cherries. It had a very berry palate and was a perfect combination of light tannins and acidic structure to make it a medium dryness, but not too much.
I did not taste this wine with food.
