Inexpensive Pinot Noir is a famously dicey category, and yet this wine is a shining exception to that rule. It isn’t terribly complex, and there’s an overt sweetness to the wine, yet it is an endearing sweetness with a strongly vinous character–as opposed to the candied character that can mar wines in this style. Pair with poultry or port prepared with a spicy rub and this will shine. Platinum award winner at the San Diego International Wine Competition.
