Thin-skinned, finicky and temperamental, Pinot Noir is also one of the
most rewarding grapes to grow and remains a labor of love for some of
the greatest vignerons in Burgundy.
Fairly adaptable but highly reflective of the environment in which it
is grown, Pinot Noir prefers a cool climate and requires low yields to
achieve high quality. Outside of France, outstanding examples come from
in Oregon, California and throughout specific locations in
wine-producing world. Somm Secret—André Tchelistcheff, California’s most
influential post-Prohibition winemaker decidedly stayed away from the
grape, claiming “God made Cabernet. The Devil made Pinot Noir.”
