Castle Rock Pinot Noir - 2009 Central Coast

Castle Rock Pinot Noir is produced from grapes grown in the Central Coast region of California, where the climate and soil quality provide excellent growing conditions for this Burgundian varietal. Here, the cooling ocean breeze helps to produce a longer growing season for grapes with extra grape-time on the vines leading to a characteristic depth of flavor in the wine. The Pinot Noir is elegant and medium-bodied, offering aromas of cherry, tea and herbs, with just a hint of spice.


I really like the taste of the wine and enjoyed it more as the wine and it was truly a very smooth wine. Some pinot's tend to be very fruity, this one wasnot. It was very tasty and I would recommend the purchase of a few bottles to have when guests come by or for you your own drinking pleasure.

Totally priced right too. I found for just $7.99!

The meal I enjoyed this with was a California Greek Salad, which you can find on Big Daddy's Cooking Tonight. Here is the link: http://bigdaddyscookingtonight.blogspot.com/

This wine definately MADE "The Pig Jump Over the Moon"!
