Another Pinot Noir. I picked up this one at Simply Wine on sale for $10.99, so slightly above my threshold, but still affordable. A quick search on wine.com shows a botte consistently around $13.99, so this is definitely on my splurge list.My first impressions of this wine were: Spicy, smooth, strong. The color was a ruby red. I enjoyed this Pinot, especially with our spicy chimichangas. The smooth wine blended with with the acidity, spicy flavor of the meal.
I would like to try the other grape varieties of the Irony, which includes a Cab, a Chard, and a Merlot. I think getting a Cab and letting it sit for a while would be a very special treat in a few years.
