Tasting - "Grand Cru Pinot Noir"

Name: Grand Cru

Variety: Pinot Noir

Region: California

Country: USA

Year: 2013
Price: $6.95

Winery Notes:
This ruby-colored wine has aromas of raspberry, cherry and a hint of vanilla. Flavors of cherry and plum lead to a soft velvety finish. This wine can be enjoyed by itself. It is also an excellent accompaniment with Brie, goat cheese and smoked salmon. Lamb shanks and pork tenderloin are a favorite main dishes to pair with this wine.

My review:

This wine had a hot smell, and was light red in color. It was dry, with woody undertones and medium tannins. The taste was acidic, with not much fruit to speak of. This wine was tasted without food.
