Not bad, but probably won't buy again. See rating at end in bold.
"Cornycopius" - Thank you for your post. I laughed so hard on an otherwise dreary day.
This Pinot Noir's bouquet was a soapy alcoholic berry. But that was about it for the berry I'm afraid. Dry, heavy on the oak and spice, very light on the vanilla, and not enough berry for a good finish. I was disappointed. You know, just a personal obervation, but I think these "new" higher alcohol content wines are sacrificing flavor for "BAM" and I don't like it one bit.
The days pass, each one feeling like weeks,
as the ramifications of change set in.
The soul stirs as it seeks,
the missing puzzle piece to complete within.
Longing to again feel just fine,
and questioning yet again just what IS best.
Desperately turning to distraction:
music, religion, wordplay, philosophy and finally, Mark West.
Sort of settling on his Pinot Noir wine.
