James Laube of the Wine Spectator posed the question, "is 2009 California's best Pinot Noir vintage yet? ...the numbers are off the charts" he says.
Meanwhile, Robert Parker and his crew have been gushing over 2009 Burgundies. "The 2009 red Burgundies have attracted considerable attention for their ripe, seductive personalities…"
So will California’s Pinots best Burgundy’s Pinots in this vintage, or will Burgundy hold its ground? Does everyone win in this game? Join us this Saturday between 12 and 4PM to decide for yourself, as we taste:
2009 Domaine Paul Pillot Bourgogne (Burgundy)
2009 Going Forward Pinot Noir Russian River Valley (California)
2009 Domaine Faiveley Nuits-St-Georges (Burgundy)
2009 Brewer Clifton Santa Rita Hills Pinot Noir (California)
