2013 Picton Bay Pinot Noir, South Island, New Zealand

New Zealand has become known for its Pinot Noirs, and the quality gets better all the time.  I chose this one from Trader Joe's at $7.99, and was pleasantly surprised that even at this price point it has cherry-berry flavors and some minerality.  And they shipped it from NZ!  We had it with grilled pork tenderloin, haricot verts with bacon & garlic, shoestring potatoes, and a multigrain ciabatta.
