Winemaker's notes: This Pinot Noir is light ruby in color, with aromas of strawberry jam and a touch of mint, almost "Beaujolais" in style. To the taste, Queen Anne cherries, pomegranate, and cranberry are the primary flavors, with a hint of tobacco to round out the palate. The wine is light in body, with a medium finish, and pairs well with lighter entrees, including grilled sea bass or chicken Caesar salad.
