- jbrunn - 03-27-2000 I recently purchased a bottle of Laurier Pinot Noir (1995 vintage) for $19. It was vinted and bottled by Laurier Vineyards, Kenwood, Sonoma County, CA. I have never purchased wine from this particular vinter. I purchased the bottle for two reasons: Pinot noir is one of my favorite reds, and 1995 was supposed to have been a good year for California Pinot noirs (according to the vintage charts on WineSpectator.com). I was wondering if anyone has ever heard of this particular winemaker, and has tried their wines before. I have searched several internet wine stores and have found nothing by this particular winemaker. - Thomas - 03-28-2000 The words "vinted and bottled by" essentially means that the wine was made elsewhere and then bottled under Laurier supervision, at its facility. - Innkeeper - 03-28-2000 If you are indeed a big Pinot Noir fan, please go the section titled Pinot Noir/Red Burgundy. At the upper right where it says "Show topics from" click on "last year." You will find a wealth of material on the subject. I particularly like the thread that started on 12/17/99. - jbrunn - 03-28-2000 Thank you Foodie and Innkeeper for your helpful information. I am new to the world of wine but am learning more every day. I enjoy experimenting with different wines and I must say that so far, Pinot Noir is the best I have tasted. |
