Wine Tasting: 2007 Joseph Carr Pinot Noir

Name: Joseph Carr
Variety: Pinot Noir
Region: Sonoma Coast, California
Country: USA
Year: 2007
Price: $33 on closeout for $9.95

Vintage Cellar Tasting Notes: Ever-elusive, our Central Coast Pinot Noir offers cherry, and dark wild raspberry in both the bouquet and taste. I also find aromatic violets, tea, strawberry seed, and hints of mushroom. The wine shows very good structure with balanced, yet approachable tannin.

My review: The fourth wine I tasted at the vintage cellar. This was a red wine with a dirty, earthy, musky smell on the nose. Tasting the wine brought out woody and earthy flavors and a bitter-ish flavor. This was my least favorite wine.
