WTN: Cono Sur Pinot Noir 2008

Vina Tocornal
Valle Central

Light cherry red in the glass.

Earthy, spicy, tangy and salty (?) nose.

Light bodied, quite smoky, light raspberry and strawberry fruit, a bitter-earthy bite, spicy, charred, floral, an odd sulphur-like chemical streak, drying toward the end.

Drying on the mouthwatering finish.

Certainly not an earth-shaking Pinot, but an okay wine, IMHO, for summer picnics or sipping on a backyard deck.

Screwcap closure.

Purchased at $10.95 (Canadian).
