Tasting - Jekel Pinot Noir

Name: Jekel Monterey Pinot Noir
Variety: 100% Pinot Noir
Region: Monterey, California
Country: United States
Year: 2015
Price: $30

Winery Review: "This medium weight Pinot Noir is rich with layers of bing cherries, rosehips, and lavender herbs. Its opulent richness will exceed your expectations--lingering just a bit until an inevitable smile appears" (Vintage Cellar). 

My Review: Delicious! This wine was smooth with notes of cherries and strawberries. I think it was maybe even a little lighter than the Vintage Cellar claimed (above). This was definitely my favorite wine of the tasting. I did not try it with any food, but I would love to pair it with some kind of salmon dish.
