Maison Castel Grande Reserve Pinot Noir 2016 Pays d'Oc (France), 12.5% abv, $11.99

88
Very Good,
Strong Recommendation

Tasting Note:

A juicy, silky Pinot Noir with gobs of red fruit, it opens with sour cherry and whiffs of damp clay. Whiffs of polished leather and pencil shavings show up. Lip-smacking acidity and soft tannins give way to a long finish.
