I’ve had it from nearly everywhere from Willamette Valley to Burgundy and I can consistently place the Pinot on first taste. Pinot that happens to around < 30 or 25 just has a bad taste to be. Bitter and burnt tasting. I’m not some snob who judges wine on price either! I mainly drink cabs that are < 15. I think Pinot is really hard to grow so we end up with a lot of mediocre stuff. But it has a good enough reputation that the meh stuff still sells at lower price points. I also prefer bigger reds like cabs. Give me Bordeaux. Easy grape to grow and for the money you get a great wine.
