Three Thieves Pinot Noir 75cl
You want a red that's friendly, not heavy. This is it. Three Thieves Pinot Noir is silky and bright, all juicy red cherry and raspberry with a little spice humming underneath. The tannins are soft, so there's no grip or chew, just an easy glass that goes down like a chat with an old friend. Pour it on a slow Friday, light up the nyama choma, and watch it disappear.
Stick your nose in and you'll get fresh cherry and a lift of violet, like walking past a fruit stand. The first sip is generous and round, ripe cherry and raspberry with a hint of berry jam, then a soft kiss of vanilla and toasty oak from its time in French and American barrels. It's medium-bodied, never heavy, with a fresh streak of acidity that keeps everything mouthwatering rather than sweet. Smooth finish, soft tannins, easy to come back to.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
Three Thieves is a USA wine out of California, made by the Trinchero family, one of the big names in Napa. The name is the fun part. Back in 2001 a trio of winemakers got a reputation for hunting down brilliant fruit from premium vineyards and turning it into seriously good wine at honest prices, basically robbing the cellar blind for your benefit. The wine got the nickname and it stuck. A little Robin Hood energy in your glass.
