Virginie Pinot Noir (France, 2007)

Category: Pinot Noir — Mike @ 10:47 am
No Bottle Image Available This wine is a Pinot Noir from France that we purchased from Total Wine.  Although the wine was recommended by Total Wine, we found it to be nothing like the description and very disappointing overall.  You can do so much better for $12, and we strongly suggest avoiding this wine.
$12 from Total Wine

  • Initially the open bottle gave no aromas after opening.
  • After pouring the bottle into the decanter it smelled like motor oil (yes! motor oil!)
  • Very dry, bland and watery with moderately high tannins in the finish even after decanting.
  • A fraud and a slacker.  This wine is like the guy you know that dresses up and acts like he is going to work at his high powered job… in reality it ends up changing its clothes in the car once it is out of sight and spends the day driving around the doing nothing.
