Muscedere Vineyards Pinot Noir 2008 Review
Winemaker’s Notes:
By nature Pinot Noir is lighter in body as well as colour and is far less tannic than most other red wines. Aged twelve months in French oak, this Pinot Noir is an elegant light-bodied red wine with a soft silky texture, a slight hint of oak and a smooth finish. A wonderful pairing for grilled pork and seafood dishes.

Rate and review Muscedere Vineyards Pinot Noir 2008


Juicy ripe red cherries, strawberries and earthy, dark soil notes underneath. Good acidity, backed with smooth tannins and a silky mouthfeel. Perfectly balanced.
Nose opened quickly after the bottle was uncorked. Fruit and earthy notes.
This is a Burgundy style Pinot Noir. Light red, light to medium body. An excellent food wine, also nice to sip on.
An excellent value I considered this the best buy at the 2010 Shores of Erie WIne festival where you could get a bottle for $25. Sells for
$30$25 at the winery, which is still a excellent value.90 points.

Hi Gary, It sells for $25 at the winery.
Fabio
and here I thought I was getting a good deal at the SOE Wine festival.
$25 is a great deal! Another reason to buy this fine wine.
