Foppiano 2006 Estate Pinot Noir (Russian River Valley)

Country: US / California
Variety: Pinot Noir
Winery: Foppiano / Estate

Here’s an elegant Pinot Noir that restaurateurs should buy for its food companionability. The mouthfeel has a lighter style than some Pinots. But it’s packed with flavor, and is bone dry and crisp, making it ideal for steaks and chops or even Asian fusion. The flavors suggest cherries, black raspberries, root beer, tangerine zest, cloves, pepper and cinnamon.
