Are there any Kendall-Jackson or Errazuriz fans out there?

Kali...My "secret weapon" Pinot Noir is Napa Ridge...any vintage. It never costs more than about $10 and every year it's a major medal winner. The last two years it was the medal-winningest Pinot in America, beating out high-powered, $50 a bottle wines like Gary Farrell.

No, it is not the best Pinot I've ever had, nor do I personally think it's America's best in the past two years...but it's damned sure America's most consistent for quality and value. And it's widely available.

Let me know what you think.
