Is Pinot Noir Wine Gluten-Free?

A glass of pinot noir next to a plate of food.Yes, plain pinot noir wine is gluten-free.

What is Pinot Noir?

Pinot noir is a dry, acidic red wine, usually with a lighter, garnet color. These grapes prefer cooler climates, and are somewhat difficult to grow, which makes pinot noir a more expensive wine, on average.

Be Wary of Additives and Cross-Contact

Wine is naturally gluten-free, but wines with extra flavorings or additives may not be gluten-free. If you have celiac disease, stick to pure, undiluted wines. For more information on wine production, visit the main page Is Wine Gluten-Free?

What Pairs Well with Pinot Noir?

Pinot noir pairs well with pork dishes, like pot roast and pork chops. If you prefer fish, try pinot noir with salmon and halibut. For vegetarian fare, try pairing pinot noir with mushroom dishes, root vegetables and stews.
