BODY OF PINOT NOIR

[brappy]

Wow.....the "crap" statement was a rip on myself for making an "absolute" statement about wine, which is an ever-changing and an extremely opinionated subject; NOT anyone else really crapping on me. So, I took no offense from anyone and certainly did not mean to offend; I'm done CRAPPING. [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/biggrin.gif[/img]

Back on topic: KC and WW, you make a good point. And yes, I was comparing to red wine in general. If the comparison is just between Pinots, then yes those central coast Pinots are full bodied, but only in that type of comparison.

WW, you state that you can't compare certain wines. I have to do just that every day. I have to be able to tell people the difference in body style between (example) Sequoia Grove cabernet, (Napa) and Wild Horse pinot noir, (central coast). So, maybe because I do this on a regular basis, I automatically compare "apples to oranges".

Anyway, this is a good conversation. It gives me more to think about when tasting/drinking pinots. And FWIW, I do like the central coast pinots I've had, just not as much as from other places mentioned above.
