19 Crimes "The Punishment" Pinot Noir 2019

2019 19 Crimes The Punishment Pinot Noir | prices, stores, tasting ...
Rich purple hue with aromas of Milk chocolate bon-bons with bight fruity center of red berries, a bit tightly wound with nice sweetish spice on the edges, and chocolate covered cherries.

Palate--Rich, full flavored bright red berry fruit and bright cherry with a hint of raspberry. Fleeting finish but easy drinking and delightful for the price.

19 Crimes tends to make value wines which all just go down so easy.  this is my first Pinot Noir from them and it lives up to my expectations even exceeding them.  For $9 a bottle they are always reliable and safe and go down so easy so raise  a glass!

We've moved!

After a few year hiatus from my "real" wine blog, you can now find my reviews at the winecask.blogspot.com  I started this blog many years ago and was ranked the #8 wine blog on the world wide web.  I am a regular guy with a very limited wallet so I drink what you drink with rare exceptions. So scoot on over there, follow me if you want short, no non sense wine info.  Raise a glass!

M. Chevallier Brut (Cava)

Straw hue with aromas of gentle vanilla, lime, more vanilla, and citrus. Palate-- Fresh, clean, teensy pin prick bubbles, creamy texture, fresh clean finish that lingers a bit. If you want a great summer bubbly with no animals on the label, tastes like real wine than a manufactured wine beverage, this is a great summer choice. It's a Trader Joe's regular and runs $10.  Raise a glass, sit on your deck or pool side and enjoy!

Peachy Canyon Zinfandel 2017

  Nice depth of hue at a dark cranberry jelly with aromas of stewed cherries, and tart pie cherries. Palate--Nice first impression with dry tannins, impressive Zin dark berry flavors full of spice and lingering berry flavors. Peachy Canyon has always made a decent inexpensive Zin and this is at the $8 price point at Trader Joes. It is satisfying, and though it is at cellar temperature at the moment it will even be bigger and open to more expressive Zinfandel fruit.  This Lodi Zin is another example of Lodi really coming into its own for solid Zins which are value priced. I still like Sonoma Zins as my fave but honestly it won't be long before long that Lodi may bust their bubble.  Raise a glass!
