Save over $40 a bottle on this extremely small production wine (just 100 cases produced) that spends 18 months in 40% new French oak and received a 96-point score from Decanter. Today’s deal is the 2023 Benmar Pino Willamette Valley Pinot Noir.
We love excellent Pinot Noir and today we’ve got a complex, layered example from two vineyards (one in Dundee Hills and one in Eola-Amity Hills) in prime Pinot country – the Willamette Valley of Oregon.
Good Pinot Noir from this area is not cheap and neither is today’s wine with an SRP of $70 a bottle! Of course, that’s not the way we roll here at Reverse Wine Snob…
For the next two days you can get 3 bottles of the 2023 Benmar Pino Willamette Valley Pinot Noir for just $XX.95 ($XX.XX/bottle). That’s a discount of XX%, saving you over $XX a bottle!

From the winery:
The 2023 PINO Pinot Noir is a captivating organic blend that showcases the finest qualities of two renowned Oregon vineyards. The majority of the fruit, 85%, is sourced from a vineyard nestled in front of the prestigious NYSA vineyard in the Dundee Hills, while the remaining 15% is carefully selected from the esteemed Cattrall Vineyard in the Eola-Amity Hills. On the nose, this Pinot Noir greets you with an alluring medley of ripe red cherries, wild strawberries, and a subtle hint of earthiness, accompanied by delicate aromas of rose petals, cinnamon, and a touch of forest floor.
The palate offers a harmonious fusion of blackcap raspberries, licorice fern, cedar, and sweet earth, intermingling with fresh, juicy red fruit. The wine’s energetic acidity and graceful tannins provide a perfect backdrop for the complex brininess and mouth-watering vibrancy that are the hallmarks of the Dundee Hills terroir. The influence of the Eola-Amity Hills is evident in the ethereal note of wild rose that emerges on the finish, alongside spiced oak and a mouth-coating basalt minerality. This elegant and expressive Pinot Noir is a testament to the exceptional quality achieved through organic farming practices.
PINO — From the Greek ‘to imbibe,’ is about sharing and nourishing the soul. Crafted from Willamette Valley’s finest Pinot Noir grapes, Pino is meant to be enjoyed with friends and family, wherever your story unfolds.

And now on to our review:
The 2023 Benmar Pino Willamette Valley Pinot Noir needs a bit of time to breathe and open up, but then it is just lovely. Full of black and red cherry, strawberry, lots of forest floor notes, touches of baking spice, anise, floral notes and more, there is great depth to the aroma with lots of layers. It’s an excellent start.
Taking a sip reveals a lovely, juicy Pinot with all the same flavors and touches as the nose plus a little streak of earthiness. Complex, layered and deep plus smooth and medium-bodied, this is a substantial Pinot.
Some oaky spice notes lead into the dry, quite long, mouth-watering and a bit grippy finish that also features some iron-like mineral notes under the lasting fruit and spice. As we said, give it a couple hours of air and you will be greatly rewarded. This one has a lot of aging potential too so I wouldn’t be afraid to put a bottle away for a few years.
We can’t score it quite as high as Decanter but we will put this at the high end of our 9 Taste Rating (92-93 points). It was just as good on day 2.
Cheers,
Jon
Here’s what people are saying about our Insider Deals:
“I’ve bought a ridiculous amount of wine from your deals in the last year…I just want to say that I really appreciate what you guys have done with RWS. I discovered your site looking up Costco wine reviews and have been hooked on your insider deals ever since. I’ve been referring every friend I know.”
“I have been buying your Insider Deals for about 3 years now and we have enjoyed every one of them. They are wines that we never would have found on our own… ”
“The only thing I have ever been disappointed in with an Insider Deal is that I didn’t purchase more.”
“Received my shipment today and just cracked open my first tasting. It blew me away…I guess I have another top pick to my list. Can’t wait for my next glass…”
“I recently took advantage of your offer. So glad I did, and now sorry I did not buy more (like all those quotes on your website!)”
“the wine is, in a single word, superb! as have been all other wines offered and purchased since I first learnt about you…”
“love them all so far…Glad we ran across you. Too bad we can not order them all.”
“Also your prices are pretty amazing.”
“Hey Jon! You do great work. I’ve bought a bunch of the Insider Deals and probably 80% of the wine I drink comes from them. Great values!”
“Jon, this is a wonderful wine all around. You have become our go-to person for wonderful wines and wine values. Please keep up the excellent job that you’re doing! Regards, a very satisfied customer.”
“Just love your site and the great deals on unique small production vino. You do an outstanding job!”
“Wow!! Just got my shipment. It is absolutely tremendous.”
“Hi Jon, Best thing I ever did is buy wine thru you…not been disappointed with any of them! Thank you SO MUCH!”
“Would you happen to be offering this one again anytime soon? I regret not buying more. This was exceptional!”
“I am seriously considering having the Insider Deals as my primary go-to. Why did I not do this sooner? Thank you”
“I love this wine I bought from you!!!! Thanks for doing what do do!!!”
“This an absolutely amazing wine, Jon…You’ve outdone yourself!”
“Thanks Jon. We already drank all 6 of the first order so we were ecstatic to see you offering it again. My wife and I both love it.”
“You are a man after my own heart. I have always looked for the best and least expensive wine and you just made it easier. Cheers!”
“Hi Jon, well, I did something people have warned about – bought 6 bottles and should have bought 12!”
“Have had nothing but great bottles since I started ordering your recommendations. Thanks so much!”
“We’ve gotten in on three of the deals and have been VERY happy with the value. I originally was going to do a wine club thing but the insider deal appeals to me much more.”
“The shipping on the Insider Deals is another great part of the deal. We recently paid $27 to a winery in California to ship 6 bottles (same packaging as the insider deals)….yikes!”
“Just got my 6 bottles and having my first glass. WHY, WHY didn’t I buy a case??!!”

“Jon – you have to stop offering all of these amazing deals. My self discipline is fading fast!!”

“AMAZING!! Damn, I should have bought a CASE!!”
“WOW. Just… wow. Absolutely delicious. If I knew it was going to be this good, I would have bought a case… or two. This was dead-center in the sweet spot of what I like. Thank you!!”
“I have loved all my RWS deals, can’t wait to get this one.”
“I know that you don’t need to have ‘customers’ email you every time they like a wine that you have suggested/rated, and I have enjoyed many of your recommendations. But this Tannat was spectacular! Wow! That was amazing!”
“I finally opened a bottle of this and it did not disappoint. Delicious!!!”
“Thanks for a great service! We’ve been loving your emails and wine deals!”
“This insider deal is a great wine!!! So glad I got it!!”
