Wine Review: This dark ruby colored wine opens with a cranberry and pomegranate bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied and very well balanced. The flavor profile is a delicious mild black currant with notes of mild plum, oak, and pomegranate. The finish is dry and displays elegant fine tannins. This Pinot would pair very well with pork tenderloin. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: The 2007 Saintsbury Stanly Ranch Pinot Noir displays a smoky plum nose with notes of dried herbs and a plump mid-palate of morello cherries (or dark cherries) and blackberries. It possesses a long, rich finish with good acid structure and fine tannins. While built for the long term its richness makes it an "I'll have another bottle" kind of Pinot!
