Drew, you are spot on. Pinot Noir is not an easy grape to grow and it is not an easy grape for winemaking--something agricultural that is not easy tends to be expensive at retail.

A good Pinot Noir is a wonderful thing--a bad one is, well, a bad thing, and I venture to say that there are many high-priced ones (at least in my tasting experience) that are plain mediocre at best. But there is another dimension to the mix: Pinot Noir has taken on FAD status; ultimately, that is the death of quality/value ratio--think what happened with the FADS Merlot and Chardonnay.
