Inspired by a list I was doing for friend's article about an Ontario Wine Society Pinot Noir tasting we attended, I thought I would pull out a couple of everyday priced gems from the list and share with you...
ALBERT BICHOT BOURGOGNE - VIELLES VIGNES PINOT NOIR - 2009, FRANCE $14.95
Simple but appealing, red currant, mineral, ever-so-slight earthiness.

Lots of red fruit, nicely balanced. Delicate.

QPR - Quality to Price Ratio - is an important factor when you are buying wine. Whether it is $9.00 or $59.00 you want to feel your wine is worth the spend. Posted below are my suggestions.
I am not an expert, just a discerning wine lover or amateur de vin (as the French say), but everyone has a different palate, likes and dislikes so it must be understood that any of my recommendations are personal. I just hope that you find them useful or at the very least - interesting. I also hope you enjoy my photos. It is more fun sharing then keeping them backed up on a hard drive.
