the name 'pinot noir' is derived from the french words for 'pine' and 'black' suggesting the shape and color of the tightly clustered dark purple pine cone-shaped fruit. The grape is a difficult variety to cultivate and transform into wine, but when nurtured in the vineyard and tamed by a passionate winemaker the effort will yield fantastic wine. Pinot Noir has such a difficult reputation that some declare, 'God made Cabernet Sauvignon whereas the devil made Pinot Noir.'
