This is a great Pinot Noir. The nose is clean with cherry and pepper. The body follows up with red cherries light tannins and just a hint of oak. The wine is smooth and hides its youth well.

This is a new brand on the market and definitely worth the money. The wine has a perfect balance of fruit and spice with classic Pinot color. Cherry flavors are dominant with a little raspberry and vanilla; the wine dances across your tongue with a perfect finish.

This is another good Pinot Noir from Robert Mondavi. This is a 100% Pinot Noir, a feature that is becoming rare. The smell of cherries smacks you in face with a hint of pepper. The flavor of the wine follows the nose with blackberries and cherries coming through and just enough tannins with a light oak finish.

A straight forward clean Pinot with an aroma of strawberry and modest flavors red cherry, raspberry and strawberry; you will find the flavors do a nice job staying on the palate through the finish. At $15 a bottle this is a great value and worth a try.

7. La Crema Monterey County 2007

The La Crema Pinot is very youthful in its aromas and balance at this point. It presents flavors of cherry pie filling with plum flavors mixed into a finish that is to short for our taste. The wine could come into balance with some age.

This Pinot has a translucent ruby color. It has an inviting nose with smells of black cherry, coffee and a touch of cola. The wine explodes on the tongue with flavors of cranberry and a little cherry cola, and yields a short tart finish. -JM
