Bob Schutz — Pinot Country A Santa Maria market manager who, in the late 1950s, took a triangular piece of bottom sirloin that was going into the hamburger grinder, seasoned it and put it on a rotisserie. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/person/bob-schutz/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 26K
How pinot left the hill — Pinot Country Burgundy spent a thousand years working out which slope did what. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/story/how-pinot-travelled/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 29K
Cru — Pinot Country A growth: a vineyard, or a class of vineyards, recognised for what it yields. Grand cru and premier cru rank the ground in Burgundy; in Bordeaux the same word ranks the château instead. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/word/cru/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 25K
Vigneron — Pinot Country A grower who makes the wine. Not a winemaker who buys fruit and not a farmer who sells it — the word insists on both halves of the job. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/word/vigneron/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 25K
Stories — Pinot Country Long reads: how the grape travelled, what a vintage did, what goes on the grill. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/stories/ · 19-Sep-2026 · 26K
Négociant — Pinot Country A merchant who buys grapes, juice or finished wine, raises it in their own cellar and sells it under their own name. Half of Burgundy's output moves this way. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/word/negociant/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 26K
The family and the catalogue — Pinot Country Pinot noir's colour mutations, its children by Gouais blanc, and the numbered clones growers plant. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/clones/ · 19-Sep-2026 · 30K
The numbers on the vine — Pinot Country A grower ordering pinot noir today picks numbers out of a catalogue: 115, 667, 777, or Pommard, or Wädenswil. Each one is a single mother vine, tested clean of virus and copied. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/story/the-dijon-numbers/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 29K
What thin skin costs — Pinot Country Every difficulty pinot noir hands a grower comes from the same anatomy that makes the wine worth the trouble: a small, tight, pinecone-shaped bunch of thin-skinned berries that ripens early. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/story/thin-skin/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 27K
High-density planting — Pinot Country Nine to twelve thousand vines a hectare, rows a metre apart, each vine carrying a handful of bunches. Burgundy's grand cru rules set a floor of 9,000 vines per hectare and the New World mostly did not follow. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/practice/high-density-planting/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 26K
