Fruity, light spice. Not too shabby!

Medium body. Low acidity. HARSH tannins. (I feel like I need to brush my teeth!!)
Cherry, cherry, cherry! Lots of red fruit- much more so than our local Niagara Escarpment AVA's.
Website suggests "cola..." I can see that.
Notes of vanilla on the finish. (Aged 10 months in French Oak.)

A Sean Minor Carneros Pinot Noir. 2010. Bottles in American Canton, Napa. What I like most about this wine is the underpriced tag of $15. It has notes of Strawberry and toasted oak with excellent soft tannins and a terrific mouth feel. It may be a little thin but it's an excellent summer red! Highly recommended, if you can't find this label I'd be happy to pick you up a bottle, an exemplary specimen even at twice this price!
