Pinot Noir Burning Creek

Pinot Noir Burning Creek Wine Details
Price: $40.00 per bottle

Description: This wine is not a light Pinot. It is deep in red/garnet color and almost opaque but clear as a bell in the light. The nose jumps a bit out of the glass with spice and smoke but hints to the underlying Burgundian earth characteristics of a true Pinot Noir without any offending characters in the smell. This wine is truly a California appellation character wine. It is bold on the pallet and so full of blackberries, cranberries and cherries you think you are sipping on their juice. There is even a hint of sweetness though the wine is dry. It is so full of character and complexity it is different with every sip and brings an adventure to your pallet. A softness accompanies medium tannins as the finish lingers for a time. This wine is so pleasing to your mouth it is very irresistible to those seeking terrior wines of this area.
