2006 Iron Horse Vineyards Estate Green Valley Pinot Noir
14.5%, $32.50.
·
Strawberries, cherries and good barnyard attract you to the glass. A melange of
lightly weighted red berries and cherries is complimented by flavors of mocha,
oak char and mushrooms. This is a wine dominated by high-voltage acidity and
marked tannins which compete with the fruit. Not particularly appealing to me,
this wine may be attractive to those with a palate attracted by more austere
wines over intensely fruity ones.
