Legenda Pinot Noir - £31.30
Price on from Laithwaites.
Legenda Pinot Noir comes from the remote vineyards of the Tvarditsa Estate in distant Moldova - way off the well-trodden wine map, but oozing winemaking history that goes back over 2000 years. In more recent times these ancient vineyards supplied the tsars of imperial Russia and the Kremlin elite. The hand-picked grapes, excellent growing conditions (the estate lies on the same latitude as Burgundy) and ageing in small oak barrels give Legenda real class - all the finesse of red Burgundy at an extraordinary low price. We think you'll find Legenda Pinot Noir a revelation! Dark ruby colour (much deeper than Burgundy!) with ripe red fruit and 'forest floor' aromas. Luxurious flavours of damson, tobacco leaf and spice, thanks to patient ageing in French oak barrels. Great Pinot Noir to be enjoyed with your finest dishes!

Schroeder Estate Pinot Noir - £79.95
Price on from Laithwaites.
When our buyers heard a whisper about an international medal-winning Argentinian estate beginning to make Pinot Noir in Patagonia, they just had to check it out. So they caught the first plane they could to Buenos Aires and then made the long trek down to the very south of the country ... where they found Pinot Noir wines to rival any New Zealand, and even Burgundy, offerings! The reason for such quality? Despite its reputation for an inhospitable climate, Patagonia boasts extremely long sunshine hours - perfect for ripening - and cold nights that lock in fresh, intense flavour. In these extreme conditions the Pinot Noir berries are bursting with hugely concentrated colour and flavour. And in the hands of top winemakers Roberto Schroeder and consultant Leonardo Puppato, the resulting wine is groundbreaking. ''Rich red with powerful aromas of raspberry, plum and light, spicy oak. Full and rounded in the mouth, with smooth, ripe tannin and fresh red fruit flavours. Wonderfully balanced, a great choice for game and rib of beef.''

Domaine du Mont Saint Jean Pinot Noir - £42.90
Price on from Laithwaites.
Pinot Noir is the world's most demanding red grape. It only thrives in a few blessed regions, needs constant love and attention in the vineyard ... and then requires the winemaker's deftest touch. Pinot is risky and hard work, so why bother? Because of glorious triumphs like Domaine Mont Saint Jean! Corsica is one of those favoured regions. Its climate mirrors that of California's Napa Valley, the other famous region beyond Pinot's spiritual home of Burgundy where this delicate, thin-skinned grape thrives. The island's sea breezes are key, keeping the fruit cool and in pristine condition. Equally important is the Pinot expertise of family-owned Domaine du Mont Saint Jean and the genius touch of winemaker Alain Mazoyer. Ruby red colour and attractive aromas of strawberries, raspberries and spice. Lovely and soft with generously ripe red berry flavours. Lovely on its own or with lighter game dishes.

Tempesto - £79.95
Price on from Laithwaites.
Tempesto is a bold, spicy red ...the marriage of two premium grapes from Italy's two most exciting and beautiful wine islands, Sardinia and Sicily. Mario Murra is a dynamic young winemaker from Sardinia, where top bottles sell for #35 plus. On a trip to Sicily he met Mirella Lombardo, famous for her Pinot Noir, Pinot Nero del Vulcano, grown on the slopes of Mount Etna. During the 2006 wonder vintage, they created the first wine of the two islands, combining Mario's Cannonau (Chateauneuf's Grenache) with Mirella's rich, volcanic Pinot Nero. The result is a quality match to smart red Burgundy with a uniquely Italian character. Rich, spicy nose with hints of wild herbs. In the glass, it positively oozes black fruit thanks to the Med's abundant sunshine, but the unique treat is the subtle minerality from Mirella's volcanic Pinot Noir!

Muritai Pinot Noir - £149.95
Price on from Laithwaites.
''At its best New Zealand Pinot compares very favourably with Premier Cru Burgundy'' (Scotland on Sunday) ... and look at the price of this exquisite 2006. It's made on a very small scale by Jon Harrey and his family at the Te Mania winery in Nelson. Nelson vies with Marlborough in having the highest number of sunshine hours in New Zealand and with warm days and cool nights to boot, its perfect for growing quality Pinot Noir fruit. This excellent Pinot is named Muritai after the cooling sea breeze which refreshes the vineyards of Nelson. Rich, ripe raspberry character - very smooth and moreish. Serve with roast chicken, veal, tuna steaks.

La Crema Pinot Noir - £192.95
Price on from Laithwaites.
The La Crema winery is an established specialist in intensely flavoured Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from the cool Sonoma Coast. Unlike many wineries in the region, La Crema does not have large tourist facilities and is not open to the public. It is a small top-end family estate that gets on with the job of handcrafting fine wines, barrel by barrel. Fruit quality is the starting point of any fine wine and La Crema has plenty of great grapes. Like the Burgundy region, the vineyards of Sonoma Coast offer an unusually long, cool and even growing season. Fog and breezes from the nearby Pacific Ocean help to moderate temperatures and slow the ripening process. The results at harvest are small grapes with highly concentrated varietal aromas and flavours. This delicious Pinot Noir opens with aromas of ripe cherries, blossom, spicy clove and liquorice. In the mouth, cherry, plum, orange peel and tea leaves flavours shine through. Balanced acidity and firm tannins round out a long, lingering finish.

Cornish Point Drystone Pinot Noir - £19.39
Price on from Laithwaites.
''At last Burgundy has a serious New World rival ... Central Otago will knock the rest of the Pinot Noir gang for six'' (The Times). Made along the organic lines, Cornish Point Pinot Noir is a stunning raspberry-scented red that's wowed the critics! Jancis Robinson called a previous vintage of this ''full, round and promising'' ... while wine-bible Decanter consistently offers sky-high scores! Steeped in history, the vineyard used to be a gold mining settlement in the mid 19th century. It was named Cornishtown around that time because of the prevalence of Cornish gold miners. At the edge of the vineyard there are still ruins of some early goldminers stone shelters. ''Fantastically rich, fruit-forward style of wine that belies its seriously elegant structure that supports long-ageing. Brimful of dark cherry, smooth Summer fruit, spice and a hint of smoke. A fantastic glass on its own!''
