Wine Folly: pg150 general Pinot Noir- Wine Folly lists cherry, raspberry, clove, mushroom, and vanilla as aromas for Pinot Noir. It also lists this variety of grape as a lighter one. The body, alcohol, acidity, and tannins are lighter. 

My Review: Pinot Noir is one of my favorite grape varieties. I loved the light body of this particular wine. It was really fruity and spicy as well. I would love to pair this with pork chops in future!
