Well, I was in my store of choice two days ago and had no intention on buying anything, just to browse. After a few minutes of looking through the U.S. Pinot's, then the Bordeaux, the Italians, Australia/New Zealand, I found myself in the South American section. I looked through Argentina and started on Chile. I didn't have any Chilean wine so I ended up leaving with four Pinot's from Chile. Very inexpensive and thought what the heck let's give this a whirl. This nose at first whiff is "Funky". I had to take several smells before I found cherries, raspberry, clove, vanilla and some cola. On the palate are nice sour cherries, red raspberry, mushroom, a medium low tannin, and medium acidity. Not a terrible pinot noir that I bought for $9.99.

A nice, smooth pinot from Chile. Not particularly special or stunning, but good. A touch of oak, hints of earth and leather, some acidity, bright red cherry. Good forna quick grab after a long day. Would pair well with the right charcuterie platter.
