Inexpensive pinot noir...
Posted by mkuller on April 23, 2014 at 22:01:22:
...our wine tasting group of 6 tasted 6 CA pinot noirs blind.
They were all very good and there was a surprising consensus. I would drink any of them.
Everyone rated their favorite as #1 so lowest points wins.
#6 - 29 pts - 2010 Masut Mendocino/Russian River $32
#5 - 27pts - 2010 Papapietro Perry Russian River Valley $72
#4 - 24pts - 2010 Rexford Santa Cruz Mtns $35
#3 - 23pts - 2012 Acacia Carneros $23
#2 - 17pts - 2012 Joyce Santa Lucia $32
#1 - 6pts - 2012 Meoimi Monterey/Santa Barbara/Sonoma $25
Notice the big point drop after #3.
This is probably the first time everyone has rated the same wine #1.
Meoimi is Caymus' second label and is available at Safeway and probably Costco - amazing at the price.
Check it out.
