WBW14: New (New) World Pinot Noir
Jens, my favorite investment banker cum wine guy, has given us a recap of WBW14: New (New) World Pinot Noir. A few entries jumped out at me:
- Tim of Winecast, sampled an Alsatian Pinot Noir (perhaps bending the rules just a smidge, but providing us with a unique wine to put the old "to-try list": Domaine Hering, Pinot Noir, Alsace AC 2003 ($19)
- Ian of The Home Winery, went all D.I.Y. on us and made a wine; then sampled a Pinot from "Three Guys"
- Jessica of The Varietal gives us some interesting tidbits about Chile and the fun-to-pronounce Bio Bio Valley
- The Restaurant Widow took the 'New' theme literally and sampled a New Mexican Pinot-based bubbly
- Fork & Bottle pulled a Slovene Pinot Nero out of the hat..voila!
Thanks for the link! I'm having a lot of fun with this - both the home winemaking and the learning and eduation of wine and wine tasting.
I'm learning a lot just from reading blogs such as this one, and I appreciate it.

All I know is, "Kai" - which means what? or beg pardon? ...I think/hope!
