Morrisons Pinot Noir 2021 review - WineUncorked: Wine Reviews and Tips

morrisons

Morrisons own-label budget wines may be a great price at under £5 a bottle but they lack a co-ordinating range name, unlike Asda’s Nice Drop or Tesco’s Lateral Chilean range, that make them easier to find among the confusion of the wine aisle. They do all have a nifty label design showing a square divided into quarterly triangles but that’s as far as it goes. Which is a shame as although they aren’t the tastiest of wines they do offer a cheaper alternative to Morrisons’ more upmarket The Best wines that sell for the above average bottle price of £7-£10 – double the price of the plain Morrisons labelled wines.

This Chilean Pinot Noir tastes of plum and dark chocolate that gets better the longer you leave the bottle open. Still rather ordinary flavours.
