Frank Family Vineyards Carneros Pinot Noir 2013

$35

Frank Family has just released their first-ever Pinot Noir - get this small-production beauty while its still available.Frank Family Vineyards' 2013 Napa Valley Carneros, Pinot Noir has aromas that are vibrant and abundant, opening with red raspberry and May Duke cherries followed by smoked bacon, leather and forest floor with a hint of sweet violet throughout. The palate is supple, polished and layered with fresh strawberries, cranberries, cherry cola, rhubarb pie, hibiscus tea, cinnamon, honey and smoked meat. While the wines' impression is youthful and lively, the tannins are silky and polished, giving exceptional structure and a soft lingering finish

Strawberries. Very typical Cali PN IMO. Fine enough...nothing soul stirring.

It's a Pinot I could work with. Not a fave. Not sure I would buy again. You know what. I would pass but don't want to make it out to be bad but it's just ok.

Full of earth and black cherry. Smooth and silky. Impressed it was available at a restaurant so scooped it up. Only 2x markup so can't complain about that either.

Heavier Pinot Noir with peppery accents. Needs to breathe a bit and is worth the wait
