2019 J. Lohr Estates Falcon's Perch Monterey Pinot Noir
#07-2023
I have sampled and enjoyed numerous Cabernets and Chardonnays from J. Lohr over the years, but this was my first taste of a Pinot Noir from their winery, and it was quite delightful. This 2019 vintage was designated "Falcon's Perch" from Monterey, and was a good companion for our steak, peppers, and onions kabobs hot off the grill.
There are succulent flavors of cherry, blackberry and strawberry which assault your palate, proclaiming a solid fruit structure, backed by mild tannins and a wisp of sage. The finish lingers, and was most suitable for the spicy flavors of our kabobs. The alcohol content is 13.9% and Norm's score is 88.
Great for most grilled meats, this Pinot Noir would highlight salmon, or would be a good companion for lasagna and other pasta dishes.
score: 88
price : $16 - $20
