On May 20th (a week early this month), it’s time to revisit the varietal with an international identity crisis: Pinot Noir. Ever since Hollywood got a hold of the noble grape of Burgundy, the world’s winegrowers have been scrambling to plant myriad acres to try and keep up with demand. The good news for consumers? The flood of pinot noir to the marketplace has helped to counter the price explosion we saw a few years ago, although it remains one of America’s more expensive reds. We'll examine a handful of beautiful domestic examples, made in various stylistic interpretations, and help you determine which is your favorite.
