2018 Storypoint Vineyards Pinot Noir
4/30/2023 - mfmarozas Does not like this wine: 68 Points
I haven’t done a tasting note in a while, but decided I needed to do so on this wine to save others from making the mistake. We grabbed this in a rush when we realized that we were out of Pinot in the cellar and were having friends over for dinner. Fortunately, we found another Pinot Noir we were familiar with at a different store and didn’t need this as a second bottle. Tonight we had this wine with a chicken pasta dish. We opened and let air a half hour before dinner. First pour showed a dark ink color not typical of any Pinot I’ve had. Nose was of dark fruit and unremarkable. But, taste matched the color - harsh, very un-Pinot like. I did taste some Pinot, buried somewhere deep inside. It was like a blend with a cheap Chilean Cab. Very disappointing. It was not a corked bottle, just a lousy deception of a Pinot Noir.

Inky in the glass with blueberry jam on the nose. Jammy, blackberry on the palate with short finish. Tannins held up well to a rich ribeye. Will buy more at $8.99 Costco price.
