Tastes more of Charles Shaw Merlot (in a literal, not figurative sense) than pinot noir. If I'm going to drink that, I might as well get it for half what this costs.

Tough to find a decent $6 Pinot Noir. Sadly this is not it and the search continues. Quaffable, but nothung to rave about. Flay and insipid. Not much to expect at this price point, but even then.

I am often disappointed with cherry wines being too dry, bitter, oakey, wood flavored.. however this Cherry Blossom was spot on in ending up smack dab between the sweet and dry line ... a smooth light cherry mixed with soft light white like grape (whether true or not), and no acidic after taste. (Sorry, my wine lingo is just strait talk, as my wine education has been the main stay of winery road trips with friends in tow, or myself, and just enjoying trying as many varieties as ones palate can take; and knowing I continue to resonate with loving my Zins, as much as my new beloved Merlots, Cabs, Blends that sit on my wine shelf now).

Somewhat manufactured pinot noir aromas leap from the glass. This is not terrible, but the palate is weird, with a menthol/cough drop kind of flavor with cherry syrup on top.. Gets sweeter as it sits in the glass. A pinot noir flavored beverage--but life's too short for this, really.

Fruity and not unpleasant. For $4 it's an easy every day drinker
