Today we are headed to my home state of California for Thirsty Thursday wine tasting! The goal of Thirsty Thursday is to find good and cheap wines for under $10.
My wine choices were a bit limited this week since I kind of forgot! I ran to CVS to see what they had- not a huge selection! I picked out the Redwood Creek Pinot Noir. The reason? It was on sale for $5.39 down from $9.99. Plus it sounded good!
Redwood Creek did not have a strong nose. The first sip was delightful though. This Pinot Noir is velvety on the first sip- smooth as silk. It’s has a slight spice and ripe cherry flavors.
Redwood Creek Pinot Noir does have a hint of soft tannins. I did like the first sip over the finish- a little bitter which is the tannins talking.
For a cheap wine, Redwood Creek Pinot Noir was okay. I would prefer that the finish was just as smooth as the first taste but it is definitely drinkable!
As always, make sure you drink responsibly.
