About this wine
93 POINTS! Over 60% OFF? Take the former CALERA winemaker, a dash of one of California’s most historic vineyards, and you’ve got the makings of an ALL-TIME Last Bottle deal!!! EDEN RIFT is BACK, good people! Who’s ready for 2021 PINOT NOIR?!?! Rich, lush, and downright SEXY coastal pinot headed up by a winemaker at the very PEAK of his powers…at the sort of pricing you’ll ONLY find here!!! Under 14% ABV means you can sip this beauty on the regular – and as good as the 2019 of this gorgeous creature was, and is – the 2021 brings it on like Kirsten Dunst stealing another squad’s cheer routines. Strawberries and rose petals, with this beguiling incense, and bergamot tea note, then flavors of mulberries, and pomegranate, with salted plums, and rosemary shortbread cookies…YOWZA! It’s boisterous, yet delicate, and just perfectly harmonious throughout – a winner that SLAYS at any price…but at our DIZZYING ditty of just $19?!?! An ALL-TIME legend through and through! Whatever are you waiting for?!?! Grab some while it lasts!!! ** The Eden Rift Estate is 125 acres in a valley tucked just under a mountain range, a stone’s throw from the Pacific, just outside of Monterey, and right on top of the San Andreas Fault. Mt. Eden, Swan, and Calera heritage clones, as well as some Pommard (clone 4) and a smattering of Dijon clones…this is straight Pinot Shangri La! **
