Pinot Recommendation for Wine Tasting Party
Posted on 9/21/18 at 11:42 am

I'm going to a friends place for a couples wine tasting and they asked that I bring a Pinot. My budget would be something in the $50 dollar range, but a little cheaper or more expensive is fine. As it will be pretty much a blind taste test I don't think catering to any particular pallet matters just looking to hear about some of your favorite Pinots and if you can include the price range that would be appreciated.
Cheers

Meiomi always seems to win those kinds of competitions. I’m not a fan but ppl seem to like it.

EnRoute Les Pommiers. Made by the folks at Far Niente. It is absolutely delicious.
Etude Grace Benoist Ranch is really good and only $35'ish
Siduri Santa Lucia Highlands in another great wine for $30'ish.
Au Bon Climat always has a unique profile. Very light, tart and some interesting acidity.
Cristom is a wonderful wine from Willamette. I think it is in the $30 range. Get the Mt. Jefferson Cuvee or the Sommers Reserve. The latter might be closer to $45-50.
Penner Ash is another great one from Willamette. I think it is $40.
Lastly, one of my favorites from Willamette is Domaine Serene. The yamhill cuvee should be right at $50.

ZD is one of my go to wines in the Pinot noir category. Cool story that they were engineers with last names Z and D and they abbreviated it this way to make it also stand for zero defects.
