Today one of the staff members at my firm found out I was a wine-fan and told me about this winery, Georgeff Vineyards. When I checked out the website I was shocked at the price of $384 a bottle for Central Coast Pinot.
Is this the most expensive pinot ever seen at the winery level? (before secondary market markups) And WOWSERS that is an expensive california pinot O_O
Georgeff Vineyards is nestled in the central coastal region of California on 500+ rare acres of north-facing slopes in Arroyo Grande, selected by the Georgeff family because of its idyllic climate, setting and reputation for producing the finest grape in the world.
Alan Georgeff and his brothers are the third generation of family vintners to make California wines of uncompromising quality. Their passion for distinctive vintages is the cornerstone of the Georgeff Vineyard tradition.
Quoting scripture on a winery web site- not such a good idea.
And 2004? Is that their one and only vintage? They didn’t sell out because of the “interpretive” pricing?
Not to be too sacrilegious, but that website seems to suggest the winemaker is in touch with those “higher up.” The interpretive pricing must come from the winemaker’s ability to walk on water.
