I have been spoiled with New World Pinot Noirs, which I love, to the point that I am not a fan of French style Pinot Noir. I will admit that I didn't like this wine at first, and that this is not the style that I like, but I actually had a French Pinot Noir yesterday that this tasted like a lot.

The flavor is temperate cherries and other fruit, and you get the faintest amount of spice, but not enough to overpower your food. In fact, this might go well with some nicely spiced steak, pork or game meat (boar), if not duck and/or goose.

If you like old world Pinot Noir, then you'll enjoy this wine.
