Wine Review: This translucent and bright red colored Pinot Noir from Cambria opens with a cranberry and pomegranate bouquet with a hint of wild strawberry. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with bright medium acidity. The mouthfeel is juicy. The flavor profile is pomegranate and strawberry blend with notes of minerality. I also detected hints of red cherry and a touch of oak. The finish is dry, and its flavors and mild tannins stick around for a little while. I would pair this good value and friendly Pinot with a pork tenderloin. Enjoy – Ken and Dave

Winemaker Notes: Bright red fruit dominate the nose, pomegranate, dried cranberries, and tart cherry. Spice notes and earthiness compliment the balanced tannins that add structure and a long finish to the wine.
