Castle Rock Carneros Pinot Noir 2004 wine review by (PB)

I picked this up as it was a Wine Spectator or a Wine Enthusiast “Best Buy.” It has nice cherry color in the glass with meaty berry aromas with a classic Pinot Noir nose. In the mouth it is a bit hot but fairly deep with nice flavors of berries bursting all over. At $12, this is a very nice example of the grape. See (NW's) review of the same wine. I was at work when they opened this bottle and I therefore tasted it after it had time to open considerably. Raise a glass!
