Tasting - "Cavit Alta Luna Pinot Noir"

Name - Cavit Alta Luna Pinot Noir
Variety - Pinot Noir
Region - Vigneti Delle Dolomiti
Country - Italy
Year - 2011
Price - $20.00

Wine Store 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 - I thought this wine smelled like rich, dark cherries covered in smooth milk chocolate. It had a plum hint as well, with a trace of spiced tobacco. I thought it tasted very tangy actually with hints of dried cherries and blackberries. I did not try this wine with food.
