Educated Guess Pinot Noir!
I have it on good authority (from Mark Albrecht, owner of Roots Run Deep winery) that there is an Educated Guess Pinot Noir on the way to Houston! So far we have only been able to savor the elusive Cabernet but that is soon to change! Mr. Albrecht emailed me yesterday and said, “Mandee, I just wanted to update you and let you know that our distributor in Texas has just ordered some of our Pinot Noir, so in the next month or two you will begin seeing it in your local retailers and restaurants. You certainly can help move it along by requesting it at Specs or Central Markets, etc…” So there you have it from the man himself. I plan on asking for it the next time I go to Spec’s and hopefully they will order some. I’m dying to try it! If you find any please let me know where. Until then I’ll be on the lookout!

I FINALLY found a bottle of this here in Houston at the Wine Bucket! They had one bottle left so I bought it even though it was far more expensive than the Cabernet Sauvignon I’ve gotten used to purchasing at a mere $17. This bottle was over $60. So I buy the bottle and just after that I found out I was pregnant! Wouldn’t you know it? So it’s collecting dust on my wine rack until the babe is born. It will be my celebratory bottle for making it through child birth! I’ll let you know how it is come October! I have a feeling it will be delish!
