I've always been reluctant to buy Pinot Noir, because my experience is that a person has to spend a good chunk of money to get something drinkable, and I'm morally and ethically opposed to spending large amounts of money to buy what amounts to about a quart of fermented grape juice. Having been to Beaune and Aloxe-Corton, I've seen part of the soft white underbelly of the Burgundy wine biz. I'll pay 'em US $30 a bottle, tops, for their best. The notion of paying $50 and up for 750 ml of grape juice is for wealthy snobs and aspiring snobs.

Check out the Clos du Bois 2011 Pinot Noir. Very nice, flavorful wine. Had it with beef ribs last week, and it was great.
