25 Great Values for $10 or Less!
Camelot Pinot Noir California NV
Green’s Cash Sale Price:
Amazing! California Pinot Noir that sells for $6.99 that tastes like Pinot Noir. I don’t know
how Camelot does it, but this wine displays a pretty strawberry aroma and clean red fruit
flavor. Simple, but it contains a clean, pleasant taste. -Green’s Wine Buyer
Seaglass Pinot Noir Santa Barbara 2012
Green’s Cash Sale Price:
A gold medal winning wine ( The Critics Challenge Wine Competition) has a very nice
Pinot Noir bouquet, with fragrances of smoked meats and red fruit. There is cola and
smooth rich fruit flavors on the palate. A great value at $8.99! -Green’s Wine Buyer
Mezzacorona Pinot Noir Vigneti delle Dolomiti 2012
Green’s Cash Sale Price:
“A ripe core of dried and candied strawberry and cherry fruit is layered with a fresh tang of
acidity in this creamy red, with accents of smoke, ground anise and red licorice…87
points.” -The Wine Spectator
Sant’ Antonio Scaia Corvino 2012
Green’s Cash Sale Price:
“Pure expressions of Corvina are increasingly common in Valpolicella and the 2011
Corvina Scaia provides an exceptional portrait of this indigenous grape variety. The wine
exhibits a bright ruby color with purple and garnet highlights. On first nose, the dusty
mineral notes are what make the biggest impression. Flint and brimstone slowly give way
to small berry fruit, wild raspberries and white cherries. This is a beautiful wine that would
drink well, slightly chilled, next to white meat or heavy seafood dishes. The wine wins high
points for drinkability and overall freshness. It immediately evokes excellent food pairing
possibilities. It’s not destined for long aging, but it tastes wonderful right now…90+ points.”
