Tasting - Cigar Box Old Vine Pinot Noir 2020

 


Name: Cigar Box Old Vine Pinot Noir 2020

Varietal: Pinot Noir

Region: Leyda Valley

Country: Chile

Year: 2020

Price: 11.95

Winery Review: Born at the mecca of Pinot Noir, Leyda Valley, Chile. In color, you’ll appreciate a light ruby red and, in nose, the aromas of fresh cherries, pure raspberries and mild spice notes like cinnamon and mocha. The sweetness everyone has expected from you plus that acidity that represents you so well, all balanced in the shape of a Pinot Noir bottle.

Wine Folly: The world’s most popular light-bodied red is loved for its red fruit and spice flavors that are accentuated by a long, smooth, soft-tannin finish (p. 150).

My Review: I found this wine very delicious. It was a little sweeter than I usually like but I found it very good in this wine. It had hints of blueberry and I think it would pair well with tobacco. Very good for the price and would recommend to any wine drinker. 3/5.

I did not taste this wine with any food.
