    INSIDER DEAL! Urgency Pinot Noir - Better and Cheaper Than Meiomi

    By: Jon Thorsen Published: September 12, 2021 Last Updated: January 12, 2022

    THIS LIMITED TIME OFFER IS NOW SOLD OUT! Sign up below to make sure you get the next one. Learn more about our winery direct INSIDER DEALS here.

    Highly Recommended Pinot Noir just $12 a bottle (60% off!), it's the Urgency Pinot Noir from Shannon Ridge Vineyards.

    INSIDER DEAL! Urgency Pinot Noir - Better and Cheaper Than Meiomi

    Although better quality and not quite as sweet​, the Urgency Pinot Noir is made a bit in the crowd-pleasing​ style of the very popular Meiomi Pinot Noir.

    Besides tasting better it ​also has a couple other notable distinctions.

    First, it's much cheaper (at least for the next day). While the SRP is higher than the Meiomi at $30, today's deal gets you this highly recommended Pinot from Shannon Ridge Vineyards at a 60% discount which pushes the per bottle price all the way down to just $12. The average price for the Meiomi is $21 on wine-searcher.

    Second, the Urgency Pinot Noir is way smaller production. As in over a million cases fewer smaller production! From premium vineyard sites in Northern California, just 4,984 cases of the Urgency Pinot Noir were produced compared to the 1+ million cases of Meiomi produced each year.

    All that to say, this is a heck of a deal if you're a fan of Meiomi style Pinot. You can check out our full tasting notes on this crowd-pleasing wine​ below.

    Today's Insider Deal gets you 6 bottles of the 2019 Urgency Pinot Noir for just $71.99, or $12 a bottle, a discount of 60%!

    This 6-Pack ships to: AZ, CA, CO, CT, DC, FL, GA, IA, ID, IL, IN, KS, MA, MD, MI, MN, MO, MT, NC, ND, NE, NM, NV, NY, OK, OR, PA, RI, TX, VA, VT, WA, WI and WV. (These states are dependent on the individual licenses of the offering winery. Future deals may have more or less states available.)

    This is a limited time, winery direct offer facilitated by our friends at Wine Country Connect. Sale ends Tuesday 9/14/2021 at noon (PT) unless it sells out sooner. Summer shipping is a flat $10 per order no matter how many 6-packs you buy.

    Clicking on the buy button above will take you to the site winedealmaker.com for checkout. If you don't see the embedded buy box click here to order. Once there you can also adjust the quantity of 6-packs in your order by using the "Click To Update Cart" link at the top of the screen.

    2019 Urgency Pinot Noir Back Label

    From the winery:

    Color: Opaque, ruby red

    Aroma: Ripe Bing cherries, spices and dried herbs.

    Flavor: Bright red fruits, juicy plums and white pepper spice.

    Food Pairings: Will pair nicely with hearty cheeses, rabbit pappardelle and mushroom risotto.

    Produced & Bottled by Shannon Ridge Family of Wines
    13.9% Alcohol

    2019 Urgency Pinot Noir

    The 2019 Urgency Pinot Noir opens with a pleasing aroma of black cherry, wild strawberries, earth, spice, cola, dried herbs and a touch of rhubarb. It's definitely a good start.

    Tasting the wine reveals slightly sweet black cherry fruit plus some nice earthy notes. Like we mentioned above this one is more in the style of Meiomi (although not that sweet) than it is a classic Pinot. All the other flavors from the nose make an appearance in the mouth as well. It may lack a bit of complexity compared to pricier Pinot, but it sure is easy to drink.

    It ends dry, a bit juicy and long. This is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.

    Here's what people are saying about our previous Insider Deals:

    "I came across your website about a year ago and I think I have already submitted seven or eight orders. One is better than the next, literally! Great wine, great value."

    "Wish I would have ordered more!! It was great. Looking back, I wish I didn’t open it at our annual pool party. It’s gone. **Sob**"

    "I am seriously considering having the Insider Deals as my primary go-to. Why did I not do this sooner? Thank you"

    "The only thing I have ever been disappointed in with an Insider Deal is that I didn't purchase more."

    "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!"

    "Great deals for delicious wines!"

    "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 $5 or $10 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??!!"

    "My wife and I have really enjoyed getting to know new wines (and better than we used to buy!)​ Thanks for what you do and providing this service!​"

    "Jon - you have to stop offering all of these amazing deals. My self discipline is fading fast!!"

    "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 outstanding. I am so glad I bought a case."

    "I am a Certified Specialist of Wine. I love your deals. You pick great wines!! Kudos to you for getting us great deals!"

    "thanks for the deal...this wine is spectacular for $12.50/bottle. I am used to buying big, bold, young cabs or old vine zins and paying considerably more multiples of this price."

    "Hi Jon, just had to let you know that I love this wine!!!! Thanks for doing what you do."

    "I have purchased many times over the last several months and loved the wines!"

    "Seriously amazing deal!!! I love a bold red, and Reverse Wine Snob delivered!!! Perfect for a rainy night!!"
