Tastings: Castle Rock Sonoma Pinot Noir 2011

Name: Castle Rock Sonoma Pinot Noir 2011
Variety: Pinot Noir
Region: Sonoma, California
Country: United States of America
Year: 2011
Price: $8.95 at Vintage Cellar, Regular $15

Shop ReviewDark ruby color. Aromas of chocolate covered berries, dates, grilled pepper, cedar, and a touch of peppered ham with a supple, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a cherry tart and dark roasted nut finish. Very tasty and well balanced.          
 My Review: Strangely enough this wine smells of southern baked beans including hints of baked brown sugar and bacon. Taste of this wine comes through as earthy with some peppery spice and a light cherry taste.
This wine was not tasted with food
