Wine Maker Review: "Our Red Rock Winery Pinot Noir is layered with soft red fruit flavors of strawberry, dark red cherry, raspberry jam, and plums. These characteristics are balanced with subtle hints of oak and caramel notes that make our Pinot Noir smooth and balanced."
My Review: This wine tastes like raspberry jelly belly jelly beans drenched in alcohol. It was very light on the tongue as most pinot noir's are. The taste is not deep, its more of a light fruit or perhaps not ripened fruit taste, like when the fruit isn't juicy and sweet but more acidic and hard (ya know?). Its not a bad wine (i know this review sounds bad) just not super fruity. The back of the bottle screams that it is well balanced, and I would say I've had more balanced wines. Not so much oak-y or caramel-y either.
