2008 Pennywise Pinot Noir, California, $12
This was a Pinot for the price you can not beat, loaded with terrific flavor and style. Starting with a nose of wild strawberry and hints of oak. These carry into the mouth perfectly and new notes of cherry, plum, and a slight dark chocolate note. The finish draws all of these flavors together perfectly and adds hints of roasted coffee and dried cranberries. All of these flavors pull together into a terrific pinot for the price. We used this wine with grilled rainbow trout and fresh greens from the garden. The wine brought out the flavors perfectly without overpowering.
