Description:	Ramsay wines are made by Kent Rasmussen. Mr. Rasmussen produces exquisite organic wines from the Northern Appelations of California. Ramsay is Celia, Kent's wife's, maiden name. This wine is produced with the same attention and detail the the Rasmussen label goes through, and with fruit from the same vineyards, however the price tag is far more approachable. This wine has a nose full of the wonderful richness that good Pinot Noir is famous for—lots of berry aromas, subtle mushroom complexity and toasty oak. The palate explodes with blueberry, Bing cherry, anise and toast. Even more striking is the depth and richness of the mouth-feel, like rich, thick, red velvet for the mouth. The wine is very fruity, with blackberry characters and a big, rich, tarry and solid balance. The oak is refined and quite opulent with its “warm” characters. This is a great wine to go along-side a piece of grilled salmon with soba noodles.
