Today we are headed to my home state of California for Thirsty Thursdaywine tasting! The goal of Thirsty Thursday is to find good and cheap wines for under $10.
I am branching out- Pinot Noir was a new wine varietal for me! With red wines I usually stick to Merlot or Cabernet Sauvignon.
I was sent a bottle of FlipFlop Pinot Noir to try and I really enjoyed it! Pinot Noir is a full to medium bodied wine but it is not heavy. It has a lot of flavor and spice but it’s smooth and silky.
FlipFlop Pinot Noir has the aroma of cola and hints of cherry taste. I enjoyed the sweet spice and velvet like feel. It had a nice finish- not bitter at all. I enjoyed my wine with a spicy chicken sausage and it paired very well.
FlipFlop wine is very reasonable- coming in around $5 to $6 a bottle.
Another reason why I love FlipFlop wine is that Soles4Souls donates one pair of shoes for every bottle of wine purchased. Wine for a cause is a great idea!
As always, make sure you drink responsibly.

I was provided with a bottle of FlipFlop Pinot Noir to try. All opinions expressed are mine and I was not compensated in any other way! Thanks FlipFlop!
