2012 Blackstone Pinot Noir, California

Good cheap Pinot Noir is an oxymoron (not unlike a "good German red wine"), but I keep trying...  And this Blackstone comes pretty close, at $7.99 from Trader Joe's.  I also really liked one called Cosmia,  from Trader Joe's, but it was gone when I went back and it has not been available since!  Grab some if you see it.  Red plums, cherries & berries, and that hint of chalk dust, it went easily with grilled salmon, sauteed bok choy & rice.  Hope it's there when I go back!
