Mini Tasting – Pinot Noir: Wine’s Holy Grail

Sunday, November 13th
Whistler Conference Centre
2:30pm – 3:30pm
Presenter: DJ Kearney
Tickets: $30

Pinot Noir is the king to Chardonnay’s queen, but enjoys the role of cheeky court jester too.  The object of obsession for winemakers and wine lovers, this quixotic grape thrives in fringe areas the world over.  Pinot’s profile spans silky, ethereal red Burgundy, spicy and fruit-forward to herbal and juicy. Join pinot-phile DJ Kearney for a romp around the globe tasting versions from Pinot Noir’s homeland in Burgundy, Oregon, New Zealand, California and a surprise region.
