Tasting- Decoy Pinot Noir

Name: Decoy Pinot Noir
Variety: Pinot Noir
Region: Sonoma, California
Country: USA
Year: 2011
Price: $33

Winery review: Lovely aromas of ripe strawberry and raspberry, as well as subtle notes of sandalwood and spice. On the palate, it is elegantly structured with abundant red fruit, excellent mid-palate weight and lingering finish with a hint of fresh Earth.

My review: This wine was enjoyable. The nose had hints of ash and plum. Overall the wine was a bit too acidic and burned my mouth some. The finish was peppery and had a fair amount of tannin feel. I somewhat enjoyed this wine. It's not something that I would buy but its also not something I would turn down.

I tried this wine without food.
