Looking for a good quality "fruit forward" Pinot Noir.?
Answers:
Try Sanford, or most pinots from Santa Barbara-Foxen, Fess Parker. Lots of fruit.
Also, New Zealand Pinot Noir tends to have a ton of fruit, and it's very popular these days
Saintsbury Pinot Noir from California
or Willamette Valley Whole Cluster Pinot Noir from Oregon.
Both are delicious.
Hitching Post makes good fruity pinots.
Everett Ridge in Sonoma County
Cuvaison "Mariafeld" in Napa County
Armida "Bachigalupi" in Sonoma County
Big fruit forward pinots look for New Zealand wines. Tohu is awesome. oregon and cali are great but for big fruit go southern all the time.
See if you can get your hands on a New Zealand Pinot Noir from the Central Otago region. You will not be disappointed.
