2017 Adelsheim Pinot Noir

2017 Adelsheim Pinot Noir

We’ve got a classic Willamette Valley Pinot Noir here at a steeply discounted Costco price.  The catch is that it ends tomorrow 11/18.

I wish I would have seen this earlier.  The retail price on this wine is $30, but with the $6 discount, you can score it at Costco for $18.99.  Granted, I’m not sure how many Costco stores out there will have it, but keep an eye out if you’re swing through your warehouse this weekend.

This wine is light, see through red in the glass but a nice burst of flavor in the mouth; I found the nose to be a bit muted but the scent of raspberries came through.  Medium in body, great mouthfeel, flavors of raspberry, spicy cherry, cola, red licorice,

It’s a simple and elegant Pinot Noir that super food friendly. We enjoyed it alongside a quick hummus chicken and cauliflower dish that was a good match.

I think this is a winner.  Even on its own this is a delicious Pinot that’s just super easy to enjoy. Plain and simple.
