Wine Tasting 3 - Apothic Pinot Noir



Name: Apothic Pinot Noir
Variety: 100% Pinot Noir
Region: Lodi-Delta region in California
Country: USA
Year: 2020
Price: $11.99


Shop review: A flavorful Pinot Noir with rich, smooth layers of dark fruit character and an intriguingly lighter-bodied style. Apothic Pinot Noir offers notes of ripe raspberry and black cherry, with a touch of caramel and vanilla from the oak. Long and lingering on the finish, this is a bright red wine with endless possibilities. It’s a perfect pairing for an interesting night in with friends or perhaps to savor alongside a date night dinner - (Apothic.com)


Wine Folly: I got the fruity tastes such as raspberry and grape as well as some secondary tastes such as vanilla and oak. Wine folly was correct about it being very fruity. Interestingly they mentioned that some Pinot Noirs from California have a coca-cola secondary taste(https://winefolly.com/grapes/pinot-noir/)

My review: It was great! Had a good amount of acidity and felt smooth to drink but rich in flavor. The fruity taste of raspberry and grape was tasty and I certainly enjoyed this for the price.
I tasted this on its own with no food.
