There's a certain wine critic (whom I won't mention by name, but he's the senior editor of the Wine Spectator) who should shoulder more of the blame for that.<br /><br />At any rate, there are lots of great Pinots being produced Santa Barbara Wine Tourshttp://santabarbarawinetours.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9210235767643862872.post-75859073810107322812011-01-27T07:46:07.198-08:002011-01-27T07:46:07.198-08:00Mondovino is entertainment but has little to no co...Mondovino is entertainment but has little to no connection to reality.
