Tasting - Canyon Road Pinot Noir

Name: Canyon Road Pinot Noir 
Variety:  100% Pinot Noir

Region:  California
Country:  USA
Year:  2012
Price:  $6.95

Shop Review:  Rich, fruit forward cherry flavors, soft tannins, a medium body and a smooth velvety finish.  Pairs well with creamy soups, salmon, and savory pork dishes.  

My Review: Excellent for the price. Very cherry jam on the nose with a super smooth, silky mouthfeel but not lacking in structure. Medium acid with a penultimate flavoring of wild-berries and raspberries closing with a final note of cherry.
