Tasting note:

Hello oak! This is a first on this wine so go so generous with the smoke treatment. Still a very good wine with fleshy ripe red fruit and juicy mouth-watering goodness. Food matches: barbecued braised chicken, marinated ribs.

Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
Flat Rock keeps a tight lid on the final blend of this wine, but you can bet Pinot Noir plays a major role. Deep purple-ruby with inviting aromas of black raspberry, cherry, spiced plum, smoke, violets and wet stones. Dry, medium bodied, fruit-driven and youthful with bright acidity and round, velvety tannins. Nice interplay of spicy fruit and minerality on the finish. Cellar for 1-3 years, or try it tonight.VP
