Welcome to my first ever blog post. I am just your everyday drinker who enjoys wine! I am starting this blog because I want to share with everyone my opinion of various bottles of wine I have tasted. I am not a trained wine professional however I did get to experience hands on what it takes to run and manage a winery and vineyard recently.
The first bottle of wine I would like to review is Ken Brown's 2007 Pinot Noir Santa Barbara county. This bottle of wine retails for about $30-$35 dollars a bottle. The first characteristic I noticed about this wine is the color. Its ruby but yet transparent color indicates a pretty young wine. The nose of this wine is fruitful with a hint of strawberry, kiwi, blue berry, raspberry and finished off with a little nutmeg. This wine is good to drink by itself or because of its youth, it will not over power any meal. I would recommend a white meat dish, seafood or any type of pasta. I noticed that it really helped enhance the butter, spices, and seafood taste of the pan seared scallops I had with it. Enjoy!!
