RE: Pinot noir tasting...

I agree with your tasting partner as a general rule....Ca pinots tend to be more fruit forward in comparison to Or (not always of course).
Oregon Pinots are also way more variable by vintage. The climate is just on the edge of being warm enough ... Its not a stretch to say a 2016 could be vastly different from 2015....from the same producer.
Sadly prices for OR Pinot have escalated to the point where $31 is kind of a bargain.
