It has nice fruit and a smooth finish that is reminiscent of the more expensive pinots. We are definitely going to stock up on this one.Don and Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06047827873970111266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5913003692034378251.post-32798658398580121082009-12-30T10:13:51.765-08:002009-12-30T10:13:51.765-08:00We love this wine.

It's very rare to find a Pinot under $10 that tastes this good, or that tastes good at all for that matter...<br />I consider this a lucky find, as we can now enjoy a decent Pinot Noir any day of the week!Gaylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11866678727143817237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5913003692034378251.post-13514783493857937432009-11-18T18:22:35.275-08:002009-11-18T18:22:35.275-08:00I expected great things from this wine, but was di...I expected great things from this wine, but was disappointed. My experience is best described as flat; there was no discernable depth of flavor. Considering the rave reviews from others, I can only hope that I came across a uniquely unfortunate bottle.Liz Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05650617209541053894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5913003692034378251.post-39365016578075254562009-08-15T12:11:48.133-07:002009-08-15T12:11:48.133-07:00I'm liking this one.

It stood up nicely to a mild curry, and is soon to be tested against something spicier.Dave Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02004650413195230849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5913003692034378251.post-75315574727477763832009-07-21T20:44:22.828-07:002009-07-21T20:44:22.828-07:00I love this wine!

I live in Las Vegas, and the wine-guy at our Trader Joe's does tastings and will pair bottles with whatever food is in your cart. I discovered this bottle when I asked him what I should have with the salmon I was going to cook that night. He said it is one of two $10 Pinot's that he swears by. That says a lot coming from a previous sommelier.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
