Gustave Niebaum, Captain's Reserve, Pinot Noir, 2005
Smell: At first, a strong sweat aroma (in a good way). Cinnamon and then candy strawberry.
Taste: Raisin and plum. Tannic textures and bark flavors. Very slight oak. Interesting that the candy strawberry smell was nowhere to be found in the taste. In fact, it was the opposite: very dark fruit flavors.
Finish: Oak and plum.
