About the Wine: This line of wines are made from vines grown from cuttings from very good vines in French vineyards. The idea is to capture the best vine stock and recreate the fine wines they produce. It would be interesting to taste 667 alongside its French counterpart. Sadly, I must make do with tasting this Pinot Noir by itself.
About THIS Wine: It is garnet in the glass, almost the ideal color for Pinot Noir. Jammy cherry and licorice are present in the nose and deliver on the palate along with a slightly smoky flavor. The finish is pleasantly dry.
Drinking This Wine: I sipped a glass with a friend and we found it light and pleasant. This is a good sipping wine. It would also do well with salmon or seasoned poultry.
Overall Impression: Though lacking in complexity this is a very pleasant wine and it is quite versatile. At thirteen dollars a bottle it is a very good value.
