Pinot 101

Varietal Wines of California – Pinot Noir

Northern and central California represent the diversity of micro climates and warm mountainous terrain that is known for its award winning Pinot Noirs.  Appellations of Northern and central California are blessed with a cool marine influence along with distinctive soils which foster vines that produce intensely concentrated fruit in turn yielding some of the most complex and age worthy pinot noirs in the world.

Join us for comparative tasting with the masterful Sue Slater and see how pinot noirs from Santa Cruz, Santa Lucia, Russian River and Carneros appellations stack up against each other.   Learn what makes these wines unique in their regions and just what makes a pinot noir grape behave the way it does.
