Smoking Loon

Pinot Noir
California
2009

We reviewed this wine after having it in our fridge, opened but "sealed" for two days. A note for this wine: if you are going to drink it, drink it all at once. We remember it being significantly better the first night, but it does not hold well for a second night.

Colin: It lacked the robust flavor of most pinot noirs. There was also not a long, or good, finish. I liked the initial taste, but not the finish.
Rating: 3 out of 10 glasses.

Rachel: It was definitely smoother the first day, but it still has a bit of a tangy, alcoholy after taste. After two days, it was too harsh. Recommend paired with spicey foods, and to consume all in one night.
Rating: 4 out of 10 glasses.

Where can I buy it?
Don and Sons Website This was a gift, but we believe they distribute to grocery stores.
Cost: $9.00 - rough estimate based on online prices (again, it was a gift)
