2005 Chalone Pinot Noir

[wondersofwine]

With veal piccata and roasted red potatoes at Rey's before Billy Joel concert in Raleigh (I enjoyed the concert).

Monterey County
13.5 % alcohol
Large pour and heavy glass with a high table (for my height) made it difficult to swirl the wine. I didn't get the full nose. Dark berries on palate. Smooth and balanced. Rather charming.
