Firesteed’s entry level Pinot Noir always provides solid value. The current release keeps the string alive with lively cherry fruit, bold baking spice and an approachable structure that make for a budget friendly solo glass or an accompaniment to casual dining faire. Sweet oak toast in the finish has me leaning toward grilled chicken brushed with barbecue sauce.
