Blue Pirate Pinot Noir 2006



The Wine
Region: Willamette Valley, Oregon

Grapes: pinot noir
Oak: French oak barrels
Price: $15

Tasting Notes
Look: Red, not dark
Smell: fruity, mostly berries
Attack: unimpressive, dry, smooth
Evolution: fruity, not very bold
Finish: unremarkable

This wine was good, but not as bold as we normally like in a pinot noir. The smell was good, but it did not taste as bold as it smelled. We will probably not buy this wine again.
