Pennywise Pinot Noir













Hello Wine Lovers!
Happy New Year! I can't believe it has come and gone already. By now I am quite sure you have had your fill of fun, food, parties and of course wine. It's time to back off a bit, drop a few pounds, eat healthy and once again resume some sort of normal sleep schedule. It happens every year, the holidays show up and you become this crazy person! Working long hours, going to parties, drinking and eating more, sleeping less. Even though every year you say "I need to be careful this holiday season", "I can't afford to pack on the pounds" etc etc. You know the routine! Well here we all are again... so get your fanny moving, slow down on the calorie intake and step up your exercise program because one thing is for sure. You can't stop drinking wine!
Which brings me to today's wine, Pennywise Pinot Noir 2009
, from California. #18 on the Wine Enthusiast's Top 100 Best Buys of 2011 and 90 points! You will find this wine surprisingly sophisticated for a Pinot Noir at this price. It’s dry, light in the mouth and elegantly structured, with a nice touch of acids and tannins with flavors of sour cherries, sweet strawberries and a touch of spice and smoke. This wine will really surprise you at $8.99 a bottle at Wine Discount Center! This may become my new "house" wine!

Cheers!
J
