New articles every week. Whether you're looking to understand a specific wine term, discover a grape variety you've never heard of, or find an affordable bottle worth trying, the EverWonderWine blog has been tackling those questions one article at a time for over a decade.
You'll find two types of posts here. The educational articles cover everything from the basics — acidity, tannin, sweetness, body — to deeper dives into specific grapes, regions, and winemaking techniques, including the ongoing Tour of Wine Grapes series. The Behind the Cork™ posts are honest, no-nonsense reviews of affordable, everyday wines: what they taste like, where they come from, and whether they're worth your money. There's always something new to explore.
2014 Line 39 California Pinot Noir ($10)
'Line 39' represents the 39th parallel of Northern California's wine country and this Pinot Noir is from vineyards in Monterey. As with most California Pinot Noirs, this wine has nice strawberry, raspberry and black cherry flavors with just a hint of the French oak barrels used for aging. Yet another great value, especially for a Pinot Noir from California. And, it got a 90 point "Best Buy" from Wine Enthusiast!
