I'm surprised, since I had already given this blog up for dead. Anywaze, certainly not every Pinot has been infested with brett, it is a small percentage, and I did give a glowing report to the Sea Smoke Southing pinot because of it's great balance. I only mentioned brett, because some people are of the mistaken belief, that a pinot infested with brett, and smelling like a barnyard, makes for a great pinot. Quite to the contrary it ruins the wine. But thanks for the comment Boy, replying to a post almost a year old. I’m surprised, since I had already given this blog up for dead.
