Pinot Noir is most commonly associated with Burgundy, France. The grape prefers cooler climates and is known for its thin skin, susceptibility to disease, and sensitivity to weather conditions. The wine is typically light to medium-bodied, with a pale color and high acidity. It is sometimes used to produce rosé wine, sparkling wine, and fortified wine.
