Le Mark West Vin De Corse Pinot Noir 2004

Have you noticed a small but very significant change on the label of your 2004 Mark West Pinot Noir?

The wine could now be called "Le Mark West", because the latest release was sourced from the French island of Corsica*. Winemaker Alex Cose reports the grapes were gently crushed and fermented in small tanks, then pressed and aged in French oak. Tasting Notes. Color: Ruby translucent. Aromas: Smoky, lightly floral, blackberry, blueberry and black cherry. This is a smooth light bodied red on the tongue, perhaps a bit dilute by California standards. Smoky red and black fruit flavors lead to a simple light finish. Closure: Real cork. Good value ($11).

*In August, 2005, Winewaves reviewed Mark West Central Coast Pinot Noir 2004.

*Why shouldn't Proprietor Derek Benham source wine from Corsica**? However, I Wish there was a greater distinction on the label to make it obvious the wine inside is French, not from California. I preferred the Central Coast version, thought it a bit spicier, more complex and "varietal", and thus a better value.

**Corsica is in the Mediterranean Sea between France and Italy.
