Tasting - Gallow Family Vineyards Pinot Noir

Gallo Family Vineyards
Pinot Noir
$2
California
Review: This Pinot Noir is a well rounded red with hints of cherries and honeyed fruit. The wine balances flavors of sweet and spicy giving it a velvety but light finish. Since there is a subtle earthy note it pairs very well with more meaty type fish like Salmon, Tuna and Monkfish as well as mushrooms, chicken and pork.
Color: Deep cherry red
Smell: Blackberry, oakey, little spice
Taste: Slightly oakey, hot on end palate, starts with a mixed berry taste
Personal rating: This is a good wine that I would like better if it didn't end with the heat.
