Product of a diminished economy? Bellwether of a revolution? Or the culmination of America's quest for Pinot Noir that just looks and tastes like Pinot Noir. In all probability, it's a bit of all three. Reliable grapes vinified by respected winemakers, produced for and distributed by a premier boutique wine house and bottled in a fuss-free package. Well played, Project people. Well played.
