The Wine: 2008 Pinot Noir
The Price: $20 at Jack Cellars
Praxis is a California winery, founded by Bill Arbios in 2000. He started Praxis as to produce wines that are more affordable than those produced by his Arbios Cellars.
I am constantly on the lookout for a really good lower cost Pinot Noir, so when I saw this one I knew I had to try it.
The wine bottle was stopped with a natural cork, and decanted 30 minutes prior to tasting.
The wine is dark ruby in color and has aromas of cherry, plums and cassis. It has flavors of cherry and blackberry. It's a very fruity and bright wine. It is absolutely the best $20 Pinot Noir I've ever tasted. This one is definitely worth checking out. It's very much a shining star in the field of $20 Pinot Noirs.
