2004 Cuvee E

2004 Cuvee E Wine Details
Price: $26.00 per bottle

Description: A blend of several Pinot noir vineyards, the color is a dark red with nice viscosity. On the nose, pure classic Pinot aromas of cherry, raspberry, and strangely enough, blueberries over hot Pinhead Scottish Oatmeal – really – I kid you not! Tasting again reveals raspberry and cranberry. As the wine opens, it begins to show a touch of brown-sugar sweetness while the glycerin gives waxiness to the palate. With a bit of cheese, the acid steps back slightly and the fruit comes forward. One now gets cherry, strawberry, and that wacky and waxy fruit known as Carambola, or Star Fruit at your local produce stand. As time elapses, the wine opens more, with cherries dominating the flavor profile. The finish exhibits cherries, cream and vanilla. Yummy! Only 411 cases produced.
