I hasten to add that the wines coming out of the PNW are absolutely wonderful. Some can be pricey [I don’t like to spend more that $14. - 16./bottle.] There are so many good boutique producers too ...I won’t live long enough to try them all! ;-P
By the “PNW”, I assume you mean the Pacific North West, Washington and Oregon.
They’ve been making good wines there for a long time. I like the Chards and Pinots, well, heck, I like them all.
