Note: I publish batches of reviews that I call Good Values Wine Picks. These are from the regular section of the liquor store rather than the Vintages section, and tend to be lower priced and the most widely available of all wines. The last four reviews I did were: March 7, January 4, December 16 and November 20.

Tasting note:

Rich cherry liqueur with full-bodied flavour and juicy goodness in this robust Pinot. There's some spices on the finish with a profusion of berry flavour that rolls on long after your glass is empty.

The Santa Barbara Wine Company 2008 Pinot Noir opens with aromas of bright, fresh berries and sweet spice, which lead to an explosion of ripe cherry, raspberry and strawberry on the palate. This food-friendly wine has mouth-watering texture, fine tannins, and is well balanced with a lively finish.
