Tasting - "Cavit Alta Luna Pinot Noir"

  • Name: Cavit Alta Luna 
  • Variety: Pinot Noir
  • Region: Vigneti delle Dolomiti
  • Country: Italy
  • Year: 2011
  • Price: Regular Price $20 Sale Price $9.95
  • Vintage Cellar Review: On the nose cherry, plum and berry aromas mingle with notes of spice and tobacco. On the palate soft, supple tannins and refreshing acidity are beautifully balanced by ripe cherry fruit flavors on the finish which is dry, harmonious and elegant.
  • My review: This wine is a strange murky brown color that looks like oxidative blood. On the nose this wine smells like bloody peppery alcohol. On the palate tastes watery and is high in tannins. The wine is very dry and just thin like water. There are fruit flavors of blackberry and currant but they are all very faint. There is a bad after burn on the finish. Overall this wine is very watery and burning and would not taste of anything good. 
  • Food Pairing: I had no food with this wine.
