Exploring the world of Pinot Noir beyond the usual suspects

  • Pinot Noir is not only produced in France, California, and Oregon
  • Hidden gems of Pinot Noir can be found in unexpected places like Argentina, Italy, and New Zealand
  • Pinot Noir from Piedmont, Italy is a terrific discovery from a region known for Nebbiolo

Pinot Noir is most famously produced in France, California, and Oregon. However, there are hidden gems of Pinot Noir waiting to be discovered in unexpected places. From Argentina to Italy to New Zealand, well-made Pinot Noirs can be found where you might not expect them. While these wines may be overshadowed by the grapes for which these regions are known, they offer great value and unique flavors. One such example is the Pinot Noir from Piedmont, Italy, which I recently found. It is a terrific discovery from a region world-famous for Nebbiolo. So, let’s take a break from the usual suspects and explore the world of Pinot Noir beyond Burgundy, California, and Oregon.
