Tasting: Cavit Alta Luna Pinot Noir

Name: Cavit Alta Luna Pinot Noir
Region/Country: Vigneti delle Dolomiti, Italy
Year: 2011
Price: $20-- Sale $9/95

Winery 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: The word I like to use to describe this wine is intriguing. The after taste of this wine was like water. That sounds like the wine is bad, but it was rather refreshing. Normally red wines are bitter at the end, but this tasted like it cleaned my palette. The color was also very pretty, it was similar to the color of blood (I know the sounds gross). I did not have food with this wine.
