Argyle’s Nuthouse Pinot Noir shows the elegant side of Pinot’s wide-ranging spectrum of possibility, with richly textured delivery of cherry, soft cinnamon and cardamom spice. It’s quite plush midpalate, but it remains light on its feet and keeps the fruit and spice lingering long. This could go well with both red or white meats. I would try it with a poached salmon.
