Master SOMM Ian Cauble Picks Best Pinot Noir in the World - Wine Oh TV

In this video, Monique Soltani shares a sip with Master Sommelier and the Blonde Guy from the movie SOMM, Ian Cauble.
Ian shares his top three Pinot Noirs he's drinking these days. He will blow you away with his vast knowledge of everything from blind tasting to Tectonic Plates. Ian explains why Oregon is THE best wine region for Pinot Noir lovers looking to get the best bang for their buck. Ian opens up about life after the movie SOMM, what it really takes to be a Master Sommelier, and why when it comes to wine glasses, size really does matter.

More than anything ... it’s was a pleasure to see Ian Cauble going though the tasting grid ... great learning !!!

[@amandat3655]

I like when an expert can explain things simply without pretension. Charming host, entertaining segment. :)

[@WineOhtv]

Thank you so much for watching and commenting. You just made my day! Monique :)

[@daveclinton4945]

Agreed!

[@WineOhtv]

@@daveclinton4945 Thank you too!!!! Happy New Year! Monique :)

[@TheUnknownWinecaster]

Terrific video, but whoever drew the line of latitude for Oregon was clearly sampling too much of the Pinot -- the Willamette Valley shares a latitude with Bordeaux not Stockholm. Cheers!

[@WineOhtv]

Hi! Thank you for taking the time to comment and for watching so closely! What a great eye you have. I have watched the video so many times and clearly missed that mistake. THANK YOU! Monique:)

[@TheUnknownWinecaster]

I only wish I made so few mistakes on my videos. You really have a delightful channel, and you've had some great folks on. Cheers and happy holidays!

[@WineOhtv]

Thank you!!!

I was just watching the video for the first time and had to stop it at that point and check the comments. sure enough this was at the top of the comments. wow, not sure how that error was made!

this man worked hard for that master of somm! I just saw that video. his knowledge is best of the best!

[@grantpatterson2727]

This guy is awesome. Easy to say "what BS" if you don't understand it; and I'll never understand it on his level, but if you pay attention, what he's saying actually does increase your enjoyment of wine.

[@WineOhtv]

Thank you so much for watching Grant! Monique :)

[@gregoryschell313]

wonderful video! I recently visited the willamette valley and decidedly, the oregon pinots (archery summit, domaine serene, rex hill, etc.) were outstanding... many cheers to you =)

[@WineOhtv]

Thank you so much for watching and for commenting! We will be sure to visit some of those locations the next time we are in town! Thanks again!

[@alexgrosskreutz9019]

Absolutely brilliant video. Living in Switzerland I am quite spoiled by having easy access to my favourite regions in France and Italy. But I could really also listen to you instead! Monique, the way you present your passion for wine is so amiable, if I may say. First time I had the chance to follow Ian Cauble. Humble and convincing in the same time. He has class. This video made me subscribing and I will recommend it to all members of my wine community.

Would love if you featured some reasonably priced wines that can be found nation wide. I live in Chicago

Thanks so much for taking the time to watch and to comment! Perhaps, we can take the show on the road to Chicago!!!!!!

[@robertd2558]

I could listen to Cauble all day!!!

[@blackdiamond51]

Great video! I do personally prefer Willamette Valley to Burgundy and not only because of price/value,. Case in point, I'll take Domaine Drouhin over Joseph Drouhin. But I acknowledge taste is very personal (I've loved some 85 pointers and hated some 95 pointers.)

[@WineOhtv]

Hi Les! Thank you so much for watching and commenting! We agree wine is very personal! That's why we love it so much. We would love to hear some of your favorite producers! Cheers! Monique :)

[@letmeknowhowthatgoes]

Great stuff. Good chemistry between you two. Love the movie. Only thing I would recommend is invest in a quality microphone.

[@WineOhtv]

Thank you so much for your kind words. I appreciate your feedback. Our videographer had some audio tech issues which was a real bummer for sure. Thank you for watching!!!

[@martinwelti6092]

It‘s Switzerland not Sweden! No Pinot made in Sweden, but terrific pinot noir made in Switzerland!

[@michaelaustin1038]

This is a great video! My favorite Pinot Noir is from sonoma coast, kokomo winery. :) taste on!

[@MoniqueSoltani]

Thank you so much for watching and for commenting Michael!!! We are big fans of Sonoma Coast Pinots around here too. Cheers!!!! Monique:)

[@awc723]

go across the parking lot to Papapietro Perry for some excellent pinots....

[@justinambrose4444]

So what was the best wine out of these three I asked because I happened to live in Oregon

[@WineOhtv]

It's hard for me to pick just one. But, Oregon Pinots are amazing! Thanks for watching and Happy New Year! Monique :)

[@brett327]

The graphic that compares Oregon latitude to... Sweden? WTF? Oregon pinot country is at a similar latitude to Lyon, France. Sweden is SIGNIFICANTLY more north.

[@TonyS-cm9xk]

Very Nice!

[@charlottelafond4447]

Fantastic information. Wish I could train with him.

[@WineOhtv]

[@philippeplouchart8156]

I agree about American Pinot Noir. The best comes from the Willamette Valley Winery, in Turner/Salem.

[@WineOhtv]

Thanks for watching and Happy New Year! Monique :)

[@lovesgibson]

It’s mind blowing that anybody would be able to tell the varietal, region, maker, year, etc lol.

[@mattesser5027]

I am a somm (albeit not a master) but no one is blinding producers unless its something obvious. The rest isn't impossible but it took me, Ian, years but getting good at blinding is doable. Way easier if you work in the business and can taste tons and tons of wine but what's more important isn't volume but paying attention and looking everything up.

Have had some great Pinots from Willamette, but they pale in comparison to Burgundy. Not even that close.

bit of a clickbait title....these are not the best Pinots in the world....

[@WineOhtv]

You are right! That's a terrible title. I'm sorry. I think someone gave me some bad advice when I posted this story 5 years ago. I appreciate you watching and commenting. Monique :)

[@definitiveenergy1]

Great wines and I agreed with Burgandy, Sonoma and Willamette Valley. Lost me on the global warming plug.

[@WineOhtv]

Thanks for watching!!!

[@MrWinelover1]

The "best Pinots in the world" , really ! Two American and one French! Hardly any mention of Australia, and for those who are not sure, Tasmania is part of Australia. I was disappointed in this video as I was expecting a balanced review and insight into the best Pinots. Not even a mention of DRC.

[@WineOhtv]

Hi Larry, Thanks for watching. I appreciate your honest feedback. I probably could have said Three Pinots Ian Loves Right Now are something like that. This video is 6 years old so I can't recall why that was the title I went with at the time. Probably got some bad advice from some SEO folks. Haha!

[@micheljohnson6406]

Nice Video! It is always very grateful to enjoy a wine and especially when we are with the leading role model, so before having a sip of wine must know the wine aging. To check the quality & wine age get some tips from the expert at #WineTerroir.

[@adamnoman4658]

@ 6 48 Yup, Stockholm used to be a center of Pinot production in the Roman Warm Period, but that ended some time ago. Sadly, even if global warming brings a return to a favorable climate, Sweden will be so Islamicized that country will be in no position to take advantage of the opportunity of again becoming the center of Pinot production. If only the Swedes had waited a little longer, they could have enjoyed the fruits of a Gallic invasion. That's Progressivism for ya'. So sad.

Fair enough point, I suppose- minus the palooka bit. But, I personally enjoy hearing the thoughts of those who have tasted many more wines than I have. I'd probably learn a lot from you too, but you don't seem very fun.
