Steel Creek Pinot Noir 2007 - $14



David: Ruby red in color. Nose is very fragrant with cherry and raspberry notes prefacing what is to come. Silky smooth on the palate with medium acidity and medium body. Cherry flavors dominate. Not terribly complex or layered but finishes long and stays pleasant throughout. Tasted even better the second day and went well with the sushi.
Score: 3.8/5

Jessica: A nice color; this red was light, bright, palatable with a tart, puckery, fruity taste of cherry and berries. It went really well with roasted potatoes and green veggies. David ate it with steak and commented that it was an "ideal combination." I think this wine deserves a solid rating.
Score: 4/5
