PINOT NOIR! PINOT NOIR! PINOT NOIR!
FEBRUARY 19TH 7PM., CHANGED!
LOCATION
Tukwila Masonic Lodge
13034 41st Ave S, Seattle
Pinot Noir! The noble red grape of Burgundy. The Sideways grape. Oregon's grape. The January meeting will feature Pinots of the world. We'll sample and discuss the different styles of Pinot from Oregon, France (Burgundy region), California and New Zealand, possibly others - including some from our own vineyard sources. We'll look at the stylistic differences of these Pinots, including how they are influenced by the location, vintage and winemaking styles. AND, more importantly, the goal is to have an interactive discussion on Pinot Noir winemaking tips and techniques. Pinot Noir has a reputation of being finicky and difficult to grow and make - we'll address some of the issues behind this reputation, as well as debunk some as myth.
Please let us know if you have a Pinot that you made that you would like to include in the tasting.
