Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2013

Variety: Pinot Noir
Year: 2013

Wine Critic Review: "This ruby-colored wine has aromas of raspberry, cherry and a hint of vanilla. Flavors of cherry and plum lead to a soft velvety finish. This wine can be enjoyed by itself. It is also an excellent accompaniment with Brie, goat cheese and smoked salmon. Lamb shanks and pork tenderloin are a favorite main dishes to pair with this wine" -The Vintage Cellar
My review:  On the nose, this Pinot Noir had an aroma of dirty, wet socks and a burnt match.  The taste was a bit more earthly and hints of cherry and plum.  I did not like this wine by itself, but I think it would taste a lot different if I tried it with food.    

This wine was not consumed with food.
