Weekend Wine Pick: A Taste of California’s Central Coast
2023 Mumbo Jumbo Pinot Noir 3 Finger Wine Company – Central Coast, California Alcohol: 14.7% We’ve long believed that great wine doesn’t have to cost an arm and a leg. So, when we discover a standout Pinot Noir under $20, we know we’ve hit our sweet spot. Enter Mumbo Jumbo—a name that evokes mystery, magic, and maybe even a little mischief. It’s our Weekend Wine Pick, and it’s casting a spell we’re happy to fall under. Pinot Noir is famously temperamental, but when it’s done right, it’s nothing short of transcendent. This bottle delivers. With its brilliant ruby hue and lively notes of raspberry, cherry, and strawberry, Mumbo Jumbo opens with a burst of brightness. Then come the deeper layers—Asian spices, cracked pepper, and a whisper of toasted coconut and vanilla on the finish. It’s bold, balanced, and lingers just long enough to make you reach for another sip. At just under $20, Mumbo Jumbo Pinot Noir is a steal. We snagged ours from @winemerchantsltd—and trust us, you’ll want to do the same. This wine doesn’t just talk the talk. It walks the walk, dances a little, and leaves you smiling.
