Last week, I was at a friend’s house for a pinot noir tasting. He had put together an assortment of pinot noir wines from around the globe, including California, France and New Zealand. I was going through the lineup, tasting each wine and evaluating it based on place of origin, varietal characteristics and style when I got to one wine that simply stopped me in my tracks. I knew immediately what it was – like an old friend welcoming you home after a long journey, I was embraced by the familiar scents and flavors of an Oregon Pinot Noir.
