- Wine-Oh - 02-25-2002 Hi Everyone: I am new to the Wine Board and would appreciate very much your input regarding a few Pinot Noirs you would recommend. I have been drinking and enjoying Napa Ridge Pinot Noir,which seems to go well with most of the foods I prefer; however, I would like to try some others. Could you suggest a few I could hunt down and try? Thanks in advance! - wondersofwine - 02-25-2002 You might look for Oregon Pinot Noirs and those from the Carneros Creek area of California. I have liked a WillaKenzie Pinot Noir from Oregon. If you go back a year on the Pinot Noir/Burgundy thread you will find other specific recommendations. A Byron or Bryon Pinot Noir from the Santa Maria area of California was a big hit at one wine dinner I attended. It retails for about $25.00 and is part of the Robert Mondavi family of wines. - dananne - 02-25-2002 The two best pinots I've tried recently are Cambria Julia's Vineyard 1998 and Daniel Gehrs 1998, both from California. They run around $23 and $30, respectively. For something lower in price, I enjoyed the 1999 Flynn from Oregon. It's around $14. Price to quality, the Cambria is my personal fave -- just stocked up with another half case of it. |
