Description
Red Wine by Robert Sinskey from Carneros, California. Can a wine be generous and restrained at the same time? RSV’s Three Amigos Pinot Noir from the 2014 vintage is such acreature. Effusive aromas leap from the glass with raspberry, cherry, cranberry and rhubarb interlaced with fresh bramble, driedrose petal, violet and clove/cedar spice. The flavor mimics the aroma with additional notes of persimmon, star anise, and orangezest all contributing to its generosity of spirit. The wine has a vivacious character with bright, mouthwatering acidity backed byfirm tannins for a potentially long life yet gregarious enough for a place at tonights dinner table. The vivacity of the wine makes it a beautiful accompaniment to dishes such as duck confit or, in this case, confit tomatoes baked with aromatics and ricotta, served with crunchy, soft in the middle crostini. A perfect start to a party or a clever cheese course.
