Slightly murky dark plum. Tons of darker fruit flavor, but with time many of these big pinots get a bit disjointed with the alcohol (15.5%) coming to the fore. A big, unapologetic Pinot, full of flavor. I’d serve on the cool side with a half hour of air.

Opened for at least 30 minutes before we poured it. At a NYC Steak dinner for 11 people with 8 wines, we had this before the food arrived, and it didn't last long. All that was left was fumes! The Moonshine Ranch is always on of my favorite Martinelli Pinot Noirs.

This was a great Pinot. Darker fruit than many Martinelli’s with a bit of tannin. Loved it.

Aromatic. Drinking very nicely right now. Not thinned out yet. Jammy. Silky.
