2015 Z. Alexander Brown Uncaged Pinot Noir ($12)
This Pinot Noir sources its grapes from Monterey County, Napa County and Sonoma County. Not a bad set of sites for growing Pinot Noir!
The back label states “…wines that offer big and bold flavors, yet finish with uncommon finesse.”
It’s not often that I pay much attention to the back label other than to really see where the wine is from and who makes it, but I have to agree with this one.
This Pinot has nice cranberry and wild cherry flavors, as you would expect from a California Pinot, and it has a delicate finish.
At the price, it’s exactly what I’m looking for in a wine to feature on ***Behind the Cork™ - Wine of the Week *** . Hope you enjoy it too! Cheers!
