Pinot Days San Francisco

Are you ready for some Pinot? How about 170+ producers and over 400 Pinot Noirs? Betcha can’t just taste 50.

The Pinot Days event is held at Fort Mason in San Francisco, June 29-July 1, 2007. Want to learn more about the Santa Lucia Highlands? On Saturday, June 30, there will be a comparison tasting of Pinot Noirs from Pisoni and Rosella’s Vineyards ($80). On Sunday, July 1, there will be a diverse menu of tasting seminars to choose from, including an appellation study on the Santa Lucia Highlands ($80). The seminars are followed by the Grand Festival Tasting. On Friday, June 29, there is a fancy Winemaker’s Dinner and Auction ($150). Total Pinot immersion for those who are up to it.

Tickets are available at www.pinotdays.com. Last year’s event was nearly a sell out so don’t procrastinate. The Prince will be hanging out at the Grape Radio booth so stop by and talk some Pinot. You aren’t a phile if you haven’t indulged in Noir at Pinot Days.
