Pinot noir is one of the most popular red wine varieites in the world, loved for its light body, high acidity and smooth, velvety texture. Pinot noirs are known for fresh red fruit flavors like ripe cherries, blackberries, and raspberries along with hints of earthy spices, tobacco, and even truffles from oak aging in older, large oak barrels. Pinot noirs are grown widely in the Burgundy region of France, but you'll also find it in places like Oregon, cooler areas of Northern California and even Australia. It can range from dry to sweet to sparkling (like champagne? pinot noir is a grape variety used to make it!) and has a moderate to low tannin level. Overall, pinot noir is a well-balanced, elegant, and complex variety of red wine that pairs well with a variety of foods.
