Robert Talbott Vineyards, Santa Lucia Highlands (California) Pinot Noir 2011

Nov 13, 2013

By Rich Cook

A nicely balanced, fruit and spice driven Pinot Noir at a nice price.  Black cherry, cedaryspice, raspberry, and a very mild dry earth note are delivered in the nose and on the palate, with a medium long finish.  It’s a nice cocktail style wine on its own, or will pair as a tasty accompaniment to turkey or chicken.
