    INSIDER DEAL! Wrath EX Pinot Noir - Excellent!

    By: Jon Thorsen Published: June 27, 2022 Last Updated: June 30, 2022

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

    43% off Highly Recommended, 92-Point Monterey Pinot, the Wrath EX Pinot Noir.

    INSIDER DEAL! Wrath EX Pinot Noir - Excellent!

    Single vineyard Pinot Noir at a fraction of the normal price! This is the real deal Pinot from a Monterey vineyard just under the Santa Lucia Highlands.

    With 20% whole cluster fermentation and 20% new French oak, this eminently drinkable 100% Pinot Noir is extraordinarily well balanced.

    And with just 1,680 cases produced you're not going to find this wine even close to our discounted price anywhere else. (In fact, winedotcom sells it for about $8 more PER bottle than today's Insider Deal price.)

    As we mentioned above, Master Sommelier Catherine Fallis gives this wine 92 points. We agree wholeheartedly.

    Normally retailing for $29, today's Insider Deal slashes that price by 43% netting you 3 bottles of the 2018 Wrath EX Pinot Noir for just $49.99.

    Our temporary summer 2-day shipping is a flat $9.99 per order no matter how many 3-packs you buy. Read on for our full review.

    This 3-pack deal is available to ship to the following states: AZ, CA, CO, CT, DC, FL, GA, ID, IL, IN, KS, LA, MA, ME, MI, MN, MO, NC, NH, NM, NV, NY, OH, OR, SC, SD, TN, TX, VA, VT, WA and WY. (These states are dependent on the individual licenses of the offering winery. Future deals may have more or less states available.)

    This limited time, winery direct offer ends Thursday 6/30/2022 at noon (PT) unless it sells out sooner.

    2018 Wrath EX Pinot Noir

    From the winery:

    A lighter style than our other Pinot bottlings, this wine reflects its name EX which means "out of or from" in Latin. These grapes are some of the first harvested and the wine is produced with minimal handling so that the result reflects a focus on the pure flavor of sustainably grown grapes from our estate San Saba Vineyard. Upfront cherry and spice aromas lead to flavors of red fruit, spice and a touch of earthiness all bound by clean tannins. Oak aging is kept to only 20% new so that there is some depth added from the barrels but the focus remains on the personality of our estate fruit.

    Our Estate San Saba Vineyard is sheltered in a nook just below the Santa Lucia Highlands AVA, roughly 25 miles southeast of the town of Monterey. Our climate is heavily influenced by the morning fog and afternoon winds from the nearby Pacific Ocean. This is a cool site with little rainfall and one of the longest growing seasons in the world. Our unusual climate allows us to produce ripe, concentrated wines of exceptional balance.

    2018 Wrath EX Pinot Noir Back Label

    The 2018 Wrath EX Pinot Noir begins with an excellent aroma of earth and rhubarb plus black cherry, cola and touches of mushroom and spice.

    Taking a sip reveals similar flavors to the nose with the earthiness continuing but also some really nice juicy fruit notes. This dry, light to medium-bodied wine also features good structure and good balance. It gets even better and more harmonious with time in the glass.

    It ends dry and long with all the flavors from the palate lingering along with a touch of toasty oak and spice. This is an excellent Pinot Noir especially if you like a bit of earthiness. The whole thing might even be better on day 2.

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

    "Hi Jon, Best thing I ever did is buy wine thru you...not been disappointed with any of them! Thank you SO MUCH!"

    "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."

    "I love this wine I bought from you!!!! Thanks for doing what do do!!!"

    "This an absolutely amazing wine, Jon. And $5 shipping for four bottles? 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 $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??!!"

    "I really missed the boat by only getting four bottles of this offer last month. Should have bought least at 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."

    "Jon, I should have bought more! Delicious!!"

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

    "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**"

    "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!!"

    "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!!"

    "My Insider Deal arrived just in time for my celebration tonight and it’s absolutely delicious! Cheers!"

    "Wish I had doubled my order!"

    "I've gotten quite a few of these and loved them all -- keep them coming!"

    "Wow - this wine is amazing!!! Glad I have two more bottles of it!!"

    "Bought a case wish I had purchased 2-3 cases. Fantastic buy for the price."
