4) Shop/wine critic/winery review of the wine
- https://www.vivino.com/US/en/us-myles-moore-pinot-noir/w/6765631?year=2019
- "Super dry, red fruit forward pinot. You get gobs of both black cherry and sour cherries with red currant, blackberry and fresh, mossy oak. (Not the overly sweet, musty type!) Into it." - Kelsey Gee
5) References of specific flavors, aromas, and grape varietal characteristics taken directly from the Wine Folly text, with page numbers referenced
- This pinot noir tasted like a combination of fruit pairings. Raspberries and strawberries come to mind. If you closed your eyes it reminds you of a rose where it is sweet. It had a certain acidity to it that takes you by shock at first, but then mellows out. The Pinot is full bodied -- its sweetness makes it so. (Wine Folly, pg 14). I would say the wine is Demi-Sec in sweetness (Wine Folly, pg 17). Moreover, I would say this Pinot is a Pale Ruby (Wine Folly, pg 27).
6) Your review (this is in your own words and opinions, it IS NOT a re-wording of the provided shop/critic review), If you had it with food or not and if you did how it affected the wine.
- This pinot was overall above average. I've had a number of pinots before and I would say this one was more fruity and acidic than the others. I would imagine it pairs well with a light meal that contains lots of fruit, or some type of sweet warm honey brie.
