Tasting notes of a local wine lover without elegant literacy or web design. Just plain wine talk. By the same token I analyze the opened bottle with my senses, just at the very end I re-check the producer (I first checked it when bought it for sure!),vintage,terroir,and price. These data allow me to reconstruct the wine and trace a botton line.

Zorzal ,Pinot Noir 2012, from Gualtallary a very competitive red
Zorzal, Pinot Noir 2012, By Zorzal Wines, USD 10
www.zorzalwines.com
A young Pinot Noir from Gualtallary District of Tupungato Departament, Uco Valley, Mendoza.
Nice aromas of red fresh fruits cherry type. The redish with a shade of violet tell the earliest stage this red is on. Good balance of fruit and just a mild toast and chocolate finish. Attractive toach of blue/black little fruits like blueberries. An 87 point Pinot, nice and round. Probably better before 4 years old. Great value at a premium level, very competitive.

In California you can try Zorzal wines through Dare2Wine website. www.dare2Wine.com. We couldn't get the pinot but we carry Cabernet and Malbec. Give them a try!
