Neat Thoughts About Food, Wine, Travel & More
'07 Albert Bichot Pinot Noir
Had this Burgundy at a dinner party hosted by my father in Quebec, Canada. Hoping this wine is available in the USA as it’s a pretty nice example of French Pinot Noir at a very affordable price.
On the nose is a light fruity, fresh aroma. On the palate is the typical black cherry, but unlike other Burgundies in this price point, there’s elegance, balance and a nice level of acidity with the 2007 Albert Bichot Pinot Noir.
Around $17.
'04 Gundlach Bundschu PN
Was given this wine as a birthday present and really enjoyed it. This wine is a gorgeous, dark ruby color in the glass. It’s simply pure velvety silkiness with tons of ripe cherries and a hint of vanilla. Good wine on its own, but especially great with food. Served this with roast chicken and it was stellar.
Around $32.
Benziger Signaterra Pinot Noir
This wine personifies Russian River Pinot Noir. The 2007 Signaterra Pinot Noir shows a perfect marriage of fruit and spice, soft tannins and velvety mouthfeel.
Price: Around $50
