Domaine Anderson Pinot Noir 2012 Review
This wine will draw you in. It has such a commanding aromatic profile and smells like cherries and mushrooms, raspberries, and cinnamon. Also, there’s a slight whiff of mocha. The acidity is great, and on the palate, you just wanna chew on it. This would be awesome with lean meats like a roasted duck breast, but just chilling with this bottle and some legit fromage is also a win-win.
