Pinot in the City Rolls into Los Angeles on September 11

If Pinot Noir is your favorite wine and you live in Los Angeles, then there is only one place to be on September 11. For Oregon's Willamette Valley is descending on the City of Angels, with an event that will satiate even the most ardent Pinot lover – seriously, even the guy that Paul Giamatti played so perfectly in "Sideways" would end up smiling after all this luscious red wine.

The event is called Pinot in the City, and is taking place from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Wilshire Ebell Theater, where over 60 wineries will be showing off their stuff. And let me tell you, I went to the Willamette Valley for the International Pinot Noir Conference in 2012, and tasted some of the most incredible Pinot Noirs on the planet there. Many of those same wineries will be pouring at Pinot in the City.
