Rare Bird Pinot Noir 2006

Comments: Surprisingly tasty and complex for this price point. There were strawberries and some other mild red fruit, and a mineral back bone. This will never convince you it is a great Pinot Noir, but it goes well with food and at $8 doesn’t have to be a great Pinot Noir. Better not buy a bunch of them though, it is one that comes in that terrible heavy bottle style – feels full even when it is empty.
