I always heard the russian river valley PN's were
the top notch in america (as far as Pinot Noirs go),
but I haven't been impressed with them... believe
it or not, my favorite american made PN so far
as been Gallo of Sonoma.... about $10-$12/bottle.
Cherry notes, very nice. Not as acidic as some
PN's.
