Pinot Of the Day (POD)

Here are a few Pinots I have tried recently. Hope you enjoy my tasting notes. You can find @Melvin on Vivino.


Kosta Brown Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir

— — — — — — — — — — — — — —

4.5 Garnet hue. Blackberry, Earthy, wet leaves, followed by a tart palate. Acidity with age nicely and break down heavy meats. Dry, but fruity. Raspberries, cocoa, green pepper. A little brambly, with what the Duckhorn rep Ian Merris described as “cherry cola”. Definitely earthy with a balsamic aftertaste. You can make out a faint green tea green tea aroma in the backdrop. Definitely a long and intense wine tasting experience. If anyone can get me cases of this stuff for a reasonable price lmk(🙏).

One thought on “Pinot Of the Day (POD)

  1. Loving your detailed tasting notes on these Pinots! The earthy complexity and the cherry cola hint sound divine, especially with that long finish. If you’re on the hunt for more incredible Pinot Noirs (or even cases of your favorites), check out Harbor View Wines. They offer a fantastic selection of wines that could easily match or surpass the bold flavors you’re describing. Cheers to expanding your Pinot journey!
