In my quest for a strong, affordable Pinot Noir I decided to give this one a shot, which ran me about $15 at the local supermarket.
Red fruit on the nose - strawberry mainly - and some alcohol.
Strawberry on the palate with a bit of root beer. Low tannins, smooth drinking all around, not much acid.
The finish brings out some dirt and oak and a Twizzler like taste.
A solid bottle of wine, but missing some of that Pinot funk I’ve come to love. It’s not the dream Pinot for $15 that I’ve been hunting, but it’s a damn good one.
