![]() 2006 Aquinas Napa Valley Pinot Noir 13.5% alc., 37,000 cases, $14 (have seen it as low as $10). Named after St. Thomas Aquinas, a revolutionary scholar in the 13th century. Closed with NuKork. · Nice perfume of strawberries and cassis. Ripe and racy strawberry and raspberry flavors with a subtle note of oak toast. Admirable finesse and a fuzzy mouth feel. My only nit is the wine finishes a little hot. (this will be submersed with food). A perfectly fine daily drinker. Unbelievable quality considering huge production and reasonable price.
