Ramian 2009 Pinot Noir
We enjoyed this bottle with our Mexican Chicken Packets tonight (see recipe on last blog).
Troy says this of the wine: Smokey, chalky, new world, nice big finish, high in alcohol, earthy, nice rounded cherry, black pepper, seductive with long legs. Troy seems to think that it will lay down great and be even better in a few years.
Now my uneducated thoughts on the wine: I was expecting a slightly spicy note on the front, instead the front was very light, fragrant, cherry and a hint of honeysuckle. The spicy note was in the finish. This was a light wine with a hint French Oak.
We loved the Ramian Chardonnay and we enjoyed this. We will certain repeat the Ramian Pinot Noir.
