2010 Cornerstone Pinot Noir

93The nose is earthy and rich, showing black cherry and loam. Rich and Burgundian, this has so much going for it. Flavors fly from fruit to umami, earth to high-flying freshness, all with a cola background, underlying hints of smoke, and a smooth, silky mouth-feel. It’s a terrific food wine, one that will complement a wide range of dishes and overpower none. We recommend pairing it with duck. Highly Recommended. 93 points.
