Myles & Moore Winemakers' Collection Pinot Noir California Red Wine

Wondering what to expect from a Pinot Noir? Here is the shape of it: a red grape with relatively thin skins, used both for still reds like this one and as a lead grape in many bottles of traditional-method sparkling wine. Regional category guides most often point to red cherry, berry, and plum, and they place it lighter in color and lower in tannin than Cabernet Sauvignon; those guides add that site and ripeness can carry it from bright and delicate to darker and fuller. This bottle is a California Pinot Noir, and at the stores we checked in September 2026 it was $17.88.

Each of the two stores we checked in September 2026 showed that same figure. We do not have a shopper rating for this wine. As for where it starts, Corks & Cheers, which owns the Myles & Moore label, says its grapes come from California's Central Coast, including Monterey County and Paso Robles, under winemaker Kip Lorenzetti.

Corks & Cheers' page for this Pinot Noir describes bright red fruit, cherries, raspberries and cranberries, layered with earthy undertones, delicate spices and floral aromatics, and places the wine on the lighter side of light-to-medium body, dry rather than sweet. The page suggests pairing it with chicken or roasted salmon, and calls out camembert as a cheese match, saying its buttery, nutty profile balances the wine's tannins and dark fruit. No alcohol level, harvest year or aging detail is published on the page.

Our call: worth a look if the producer's account is enough on its own, named Central Coast sourcing reaching into Monterey County, a named winemaker, and a stated light-bodied, dry style built on cherry, raspberry and cranberry flavors. Pass if you want a shopper rating to back that account before you buy; none has reached our record for this bottle.
