Under $15 Pinot Noir suggestions ?

Greetings Larry;

Found any decent Ontario PN yet? I keep looking but not having any luck and certainly not at under $15US. Now, how much is that in C$ eh??? ;>))

Dick,

Just above your price point, you might want to look into Acacia Central Coast PN. It is a CA fruit-bomb, but a polished one. Costco usually has it for US$

18/btl. There is also a SV Beckstoffer PN, as well, but it goes for about US$
  1. I can't say that it's worth the difference, but I did put in 6 btls. I usually lay the Acacia down for about 1 yr, though it is very nice upon release.

I agree; we had a Geyser Peak 2003 sauv. blanc, a _?_ Guigal Condrieu (forgot the year), and Cristom's 2001 Marjorie Vineyard pinot noir. My favorite for a long time, and 7 out of 8 guests agreed, that the Cristom paired best with the traditional roasted turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes w/sour cream/green onion, green bean casserole, and yams. The Geyser held up well, and the viognier tasted flat after a bite of the turkey and gravy.

As for cheap pinots, Pepperwood is a good, as is Sebastiani.
