Light bright cherry hue with aromas of brioche, menthol, licorice, and evergreen--Wow!
Palate--Talked about a relaxed first impression that begins to build as it sits on your palate... An elegant, seductive presentation yielding pronounced Pinot fruit of tart raspberry, and touches of cherry/berry with a finish that lingers giving off more gentle yet definite varietal fruit.
This is decidedly old world with the fruit hailing from France--where else? The bouquet is sensational, and the palate is unique because I am so used to domestic Pinot Noir. This is truly a lovely wine and at $14 (Sam's Club) it is a must buy!
I am going to be pairing it with homemade split pea soup and my guess is, it will be nice, may be even great! Raise a glass!
