The Wine: Meiomi Pinot Noir is made with the Pinot Noir grape. It has a vintage year of 2021 and is crafted in Acampo, California. The bottle has an ABV of 13.5% and costs about $51.
Critic Review: John Rodgers from Honest Wine Reviews says he noted "classic pinot noir flavor with a bit of nutmeg or perhaps allspice." (https://www.honestwinereviews.com/meiomi-pinot-noir-review)
Wine Folly: Page 150 says the Pinot Noir grape has notes of clove and raspberry with high acidity, but low tannins. I definitely noticed the acidity, but didn't get any cherry flavors.
My Review: The wine smelled like a crushed grapefruit with lots of juice spilled out. It goes down really smooth (kind of like thick water) with a thick viscosity. It has a spike of acidity that does not stick around for a while. I tried this wine with a large pretzel (like the ones you would get at a baseball game), where the pretzels overpowered the wine, making it taste like salt.
