Wine Tasting: Cherry Cove Pinot Noir


Name: Cherry Cove Pinot Noir
Variety: Pinot Noir
Country: U.S.
Region: Willamette Valley, Oregon
Year: 2011
Price: $17.95
Review: The ruby color of this wine suggests classic Pinot as the nose opens with fresh lavender and plum jam.  Across the palate are vibrant tones, from explosive red cherry on entry to the lush strawberry on the lively mid-palate.  Lingering floral tones hang just for a moment and carry through the soft finish.
My Review: I detected a very fruity nose on this wine.  This is also true with the flavors, exploding with cherry and other berries.  Its soft finish provides for a very mild, refreshing experience.
