I think the first scene in a winery was Sanford. But not positive of that.

Figures. Costco here in North Carolina does not have...if they did I would
buy some there. When they have it Costco always has the best prices in my area.

For a "Sideways" party you want authentic, Santa Barbara County Pinot Noirs - which none of those are. Try Hitching Post, Sanford, Foley, Byron, Foxen, Bonaccorsi (a little more $$), Arcadian, Gainey, East Valley Vineyards, Cambria, Laetitia... There are _many_ more of them out there! The ones from Santa Rita Hills will cost more than $30, but they're worth it. Tom S |

Oh, I guess I misread at first - probably because his wines had nothing to do with the movie. All of the ones you mentioned are good. Other ones from the region and/or the movie: Babcock Melville Longoria Fiddlehead Dierberg Fess Parker Lane Tanner Stolpman Zaca Mesa Blackjack Ranch My personal favorite pinot noir from that area is Longoria. Bonaccorsi is good, too, but there's no more of it. Dimitri |

I had the Andrew Murray Syrah with a meal this week and thought it
wonderful. The Sideways party is a grand idea. Will have to give that a trial run. SDS |

For a Sideways party? I'd buy a few really top-notch bottles of Merlot. If you buy Pinot Noir for a Sideways party, you're missing the entire point of the movie. Dana |

Why I think which? That Santa Barbara County Pinot Noir is most appropriate for a "Sideways" event, or that none of those wines are from Santa Barbara County? ;^) This seems to be > the same logic that the MTV staff used when they > selected Dire Straits' "Money For Nothing" as an > anthem for MTV back in the 1980s... Worked well for MTV, didn't it? Kind of appropriate too, I'd say. Tom S |

Maybe, but I doubt it. So, since the primary character espouses of, and a lot of the dialogue of the film revolves around, Pinot Noir, it makes sense that it would be the most obvious choice for the wine to serve at such a party. |

This is all part of why I wouldn't attempt to have a _Sideways_ party in the first place. Jack's compulsive philandering is as much of the movie as Miles' obsession with Pinot Noir. Dana |
