We had dinner the other night at a great "little Italian place" which was out of my favorite Italian wine, so we switched gears, and ordered an Oregon Pinot Noir t0 go with our Eggplant Parmesan and Lobster Ravioli. The wine was the 2019 Big Fire Pinot Noir, and it was a great partner for the Italian cuisine!

Lots of big, red fruit in the nose, with a touch of strawberry. The flavors are mostly cherry and plum, with a lingering finish, which is both satisfying and seductive. The alcohol content is 13%, and Norm's score is 89.

We enjoyed the Big Fire with our Italian fare, and would also find it a good match for salmon from the grill.
