Meiomi is the most searched Pinot brand in the US. This Pinot is made from grapes from the Central Valley of California. The warm, dry conditions in this part of California and much hotter than the climate in Burgundy, France. For this reason, the area is much more conducive to higher grape yields. These harvests support bulk Pinot Noir wine production.
So Meiomi is a bulk Pinot Noir, and it is also the darkest of the pinots we sampled for this review. Pinot Noir wine is typically not as dark or opaque as the Meiomi Pinot. In terms of the aroma, the Meiomi Pinot was our least favorite of the three we tasted. We hate to say it, but the Meiomi Pinot smells like industrial plastic and mass-produced chewy candy, like Twizzlers or Skittles.
But if you can get past the nose of this Pinot, this pinot is super smooth. Meiomi is a rich, luscious pinot with a delicate plum and berry finish.

Wild spicy cherries with some heat. Not so harmonious but enjoyable.
