A blend of grapes from Monterey, Santa Barbara and Sonoma counties. · Moderate reddish purple color in the glass. Shy aromas of black cherry and cigar ash. The mid weight black cherry core is accented with charred oak and mushroom flavors. Refined, with gentle tannins and a short finish. Score: 85. Reviewed September 7, 2016 ARTICLE »

2013 Cotillion California Pinot Noir

13.8% alc., $10. A featured wine at Trader Joe’s markets. 60% Monterey County, 24% Sonoma County and 16% Santa Barbara County. Vinted and bottled by Ashford Court in Napa. · Moderate reddish purple color in the glass. Aromas of black cherry, black raspberry, smoky oak and bacon are replicated on the palate. A umami-driven wine with a soft and smooth texture and some finishing intensity. Not a special wine by any stretch, but drinkable at a wallet sparing price. Score: 84.
