Pommard, UCD 4 — Pinot Country The workhorse of American pinot noir before the Dijon numbers arrived, and still planted everywhere. Bigger berries, firmer structure, a darker wine than the Dijons give. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/clone/pommard-ucd4/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 26K
Central Otago — Pinot Country The southernmost commercial wine region on earth, and the only part of New Zealand with a true continental climate — frost in the spring, forty-degree swings in a day, schist under everything. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/region/central-otago/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 29K
Felton Road — Pinot Country Bannockburn, Central Otago — schist, old gold workings, and a cellar that farms organically and biodynamically and bottles its blocks separately. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/producer/felton-road/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 29K
Martin Ray — Pinot Country Bought Paul Masson's mountain winery in 1936, sold it during the war, and spent the rest of his life above Saratoga making pinot noir and chardonnay when California was planting neither. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/person/martin-ray/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 26K
Neutral oak — Pinot Country A barrel that has already given up its flavour — third use, fourth, older. It still lets oxygen through the staves and still shapes texture; it just stops tasting of the forest. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/practice/neutral-oak/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 27K
TTB — Pinot Country The US Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau: it rules on AVA petitions, writes them into 27 CFR part 9, and approves every label that goes on a bottle. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/org/ttb/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 35K
Red oak — Pinot Country The wood the whole style rests on. In Santa Maria, red oak means coast live oak — Quercus agrifolia — which grows on the hills around the valley and burns down to hot, steady coals without throwing much smoke. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/pairing/red-oak/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 28K
Mount Eden selection — Pinot Country A California field selection traced back to Martin Ray's plantings in the Santa Cruz Mountains, and through him, by the usual account, to Paul Masson's cuttings from Burgundy. Tiny clusters, tiny crop. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/clone/mount-eden/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 27K
Pinot gris — Pinot Country A colour sport of pinot: the berry loses most of its pigment and lands somewhere between grey, pink and bronze. Same vine, same bunch, different skin. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/variety/pinot-gris/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 29K
Hemel-en-Aarde — Pinot Country A valley behind Hermanus, running inland from Walker Bay, with clay over decomposed shale and cold air off the Atlantic. South Africa's pinot address. nanobotco.github.io/pinot-noir/region/hemel-en-aarde/ · 16-Sep-2026 · 29K
