The Little Penguin Pinot Noir.

Another friend bought this the same night. Kind of started an impromptu tasting session. This was $7. A little better than the Nine Stones but basically in the same category. The price was more on target with this one.

Rosemount Pinot Noir.

Taking a stab at rather common variety. My first sip of this immediately made me think "Berries!" and then elementary school. I guess it reminded me very strongly of grape juice but not in a bad/Barefoot way. Not terribly complex but not brainless either. It was pretty sweet and jammy, low on tannins with a clean, woody finish. For something so flavorful, the mouthfeel was surprisingly thin. Rosemount has always been satisfactory for me. It also has a good variety of wines. I think it's well on its way to becoming the supplier of my daily drinkers.
