As the popularity of pinot continues to grow, the festival gets larger each year. I asked several people in the crowd if they became fans following the film Sideways in which the main character is a pinot aficionado. Everyone swore they loved pinot noir long before the movie was ever made. Some even said they were disappointed that their little secret was revealed to the masses. "Now everyone thinks they like pinot," said one attendee.
