Buena Vista Carneros Pinot Noir is a Perfect Pick for the Holidays!

The Buena Vista Carneros Pinot Noir gets a great photo op and perfect pairing for Thanksgiving by Bill Citara in the November 2008 US Airways on-flight magazine.

Clearly on message he goes onto say, “The cool-weather Carneros region produces some of the finest Pinot Noirs in Northern California, and the resurgent Buena Vista’s latest effort is an excellent example.”

US Airways is the country’s 5th largest airline and boards over 81 million annual passengers, with an astounding 6.8 million a month!

Congratulations team BVC on this great hit!
