Boen Pinot Noir

Name: Boen Pinot Noir

Variety: 100% Pinot Grigio
Region: Russian River Valley, California
Country: USA
Year: 2017
Price: $21.99
Winemakers notes: The first sip of this tri-appelation Pinot Noir envelopes the mouth with a velvety richness. Flavors of bright cherry, dried herbs and hints of vanilla, is supple and sumptuous, to the finish.
My review: This wine has a very sweet aroma but a much more subdued taste. No strong flavors seem to stand out, just the subtle hints of cherry. This wine was much lighter than I was expecting. It had a nice and warm finish without the “vinegar-y” taste many other pinot noirs seem to have. Overall it was very smooth and easy to drink.
Pairings: I did not pair this wine with any food.
