Roar 2006 Pinot Noir, Santa Lucia, CA
This evening was spent sharing several bottles of wine with several LUSHES, all with proud LEO personalities. With just a few bottles Risqué had his entire Pride on their backs meowing for more.
Deep reflections of raspberry red yield a nose of huge juicy cherry and more tangy summer raspberry, followed with earthy mushroom and warm forest floor. The huge raspberry and mushroom scents carry into the beautifully balanced mouth filling taste. Risqué received a pleasing surprise upon opening of the smoky aroma of bacon on the cork. Contributing to the rich mouth feel of this 100% Pinot Noir was the aging in 100% French oak barrels for 11 months and unfiltered and unrefined bottling.
Roar 2006 Pinot Noir helped Risqué avoid any cat scratch, thus highly recommending this delicious catnip for your next Purrrrfect Pride gathering.
Here kitty, kitty, kitty!
Alcohol 14.9% ($38)
