Hey everybody, how you doing? if you want to learn more about some of the best red
wines out there you may want to stay tuned, because in the coming weeks I'm
gonna roll out a series of videos, each one of them is going to talk about an
individual red wine that you might like to try. For each of these famous red
wines that we're gonna cover, I'll give you some background & history, not too
much because I don't want to bore you; I'll give you the tasting notes so you
know what it tastes like, whether you want to buy it or not, and then I'll give
you some food pairing tips too, so you know what to do with it, after you have
the wine. So if that sounds good to you let's get started!
This is Pinot Noir. Pinot Noir is a great red wine for beginners to start with
because it's lighter, which makes it easier to approach. Pinot noir is a truly
ancient grape, that's been around for a really long time - it originates in the
region of Burgundy France, and they've been using it to make wine there for
about 2,000 years!
By the way all red Burgundy is made from Pinot Noir, so next time you go to the
store, you can actually pick up a bottle of Burgundy and you're buying French Pinot Noir.
Pinot Noir is also used in French Champagne. if you want to know why
Pinot Noir is red, but champagne comes out white, I'll put a link up to my video
here that explains how red wine gets its color. Nowadays, Pinot Noir is grown and
made all over the world but the best examples come from areas with cooler
climates: countries like Germany, Italy and New Zealand are all making great
Pinot Noir. In the United States, look for California's Central Coast and the Russian
River Valley; but also Oregon and Washington are making some fantastic
examples of Pinot. Pinot Noir is almost always dry, but not too dry, because there
aren't a lot of tannins in it and it's pretty light and elegant, which makes it
easy for beginners to appreciate. It's famous for having these beautiful
flavors of fresh raspberries and crushed strawberries and those fresh berry flavors
are perfect with roasted poultry: chicken, turkey and duck, which by the way, makes
it great for the holiday table. And when Pinot noir gets older, it starts to
take on these funky aromas and flavors things like mushrooms, earth, wet leaves
an even barnyard!! When you get an earthy pinot noir like this, it's perfect with
really stinky cheeses, and truffle and mushroom dishes. So, what are you going to
spend on a good bottle of Pinot? well if you shop in Burgundy,
and you buy from some of the most celebrated and famous vineyards there,
you're gonna wind up paying upwards of $3,000 for one bottle!!! Yeah $3,000 for
one bottle - but don't freak out - because most Pinot Noir that's out there in the
world, is not that expensive. On average you can expect to spend anywhere from
ten to thirty dollars for a decent bottle of Pinot Noir...
