Caveat, I tasted this after a few low octane Pinot Noir's, but this seemed to be bigger in style. Garnet in color with some purple hues. Mostly opaque and bright. The nose has black cherries, black raspberries, and a bit of mint. Full bodied. Light to medium tannins. Good acidity. Plenty of depth. On the palate, this has some complexity. Lush black cherries with some black raspberries. Nice finish. Tasty. This drinks well on its own and will work well with most foods. It would be nice with Grilled Salmon. Drink over the next ten years.
This is a Pinot noir from Switzerland. It is very lightly styled although elegant is perhaps not the right word either. Pale ruby in color, clear and bright. The nose is interesting with strawberries, light cherries and a hint of cedar. Light bodied. Good acidity. On the palate, strawberries with slight cherries. A slight herbal note. Good finish. This wine needs food. Fondue seems appropriate but most soft cheeses would work. Drink over the next five to eight years.
