winemaker's notes:
Cambria 2006 Julia's Pinot Noir offers fresh cherry, blueberry, strawberry and cranberry fruit flavors accented with cinnamon and vanilla oak spice characters. The mid-palate has a silky texture and balanced tannins that lead into a fruity and earthy finish.
critical acclaim:
"This is the best Pinot Noir at this price on the market. Easily. It's picture-perfect cool climate, absolutely dry and silky, with complex flavors of cherries, Mandarin orange, cola, pomegranates, licorice and cinnamon spice, made even richer by smoky oak. Just lovely, and gets even better as it breathes in the glass."

Wine Enthusiast
"Light crimson hue. Inviting scents of wild cherry and raspberry with secondary nuances of thistle and white pepper. Juicy flavors of black cherry and raspberry. Velvety tannins and hints of vanilla and allspice in the cherry-driven close."

I would buy this wine again
I really enjoyed the smoothness of this wine. The alcohol causes a comfortable slight warmness a few seconds after tasting. Very mellow. The wine is aromatic and the blend of berries in it's flavor is great. Highly recommended for those that enjoy a red wine that is not very tannic.

I would not buy this wine again
Very fruity, light. I wouldn't be offended if someone brought me a bottle of this but I probably wouldn't buy it again.
