2016 Acrobat Oregon Pinot Noir
13.5% alc., $19.99, screw cap. · Light ruby red color in the glass. Nicely perfumed with scents of strawberry, red cherry and sandalwood. Simple, yet satisfying, in a light weighted style offering an array of red fruits and a touch of oak in the background. Easygoing tannins make for gracious drinking.
