The New Pinotgraphers

I heard you’ve drank every great Pinot Noir from everybody who’s ever made a great Pinot Noir. Every great Pinot from every historically great region. All the important producers in Burgundy. All the Russian River Valleys. All the Willamette Valley sub-AVAs. I heard you have a vertical of every great vintage, of every great winery, in Sta. Rita Hills. I heard you have a bottle of 2005 La Tâche autographed by Aubert de Villaine. I heard Raj Parr told you that you know what the f*** you’re talking about when you talk about Pinot.

But have you drank our Pinots? You don’t know what you really want to drink until you do. Check out what the cool Pinot kids who are redrawing the Pinot map are doing. And then wake up naked on the beach in Ibiza in 1988 or something. We dunno. This whole thing is a not-so-vague reference to an LCD Soundsystem song and has nothing to do with the really good band called The New Pornographers. The latter band just made for a better Pinot pun. No one said any of this was easy. Definitely pouring some Pinot tho. (I’m losing my edge?)
