It detracts substantially from your wine-snob pose that
you can't spell "pinot noir" correctly.

mcnally if you do a google of the spelling, you will find that plenty
of people use the spelling "pinot noire" instead of "pinot noir" It is
not an either/or deal. Noire (spelled with an 'e') is french for
black, and pinot noire are black grapes. So I spelled it like the
french do, not the snooty californians in napa valley :)

My understanding (from a year of French in college) is that "pinot",
being a masculine noun, would take the masculine form of the adjective
("noir"), whereas a feminine noun such as "plume" (pen) would take the
feminine form of the adjective, "noire". Thus:
English French
------- ------
the black wine le pinot noir
the black pen la plume noire
A Google search for "pinot noire" yields some hits, but then, there's
plenty of wrong stuff on the web, n'est ce pas?

remmers is indeed correct; the adjectives agree with the gender of the noun.
So since pinot is masculine, it's written "le pinot noir".
there are some adjectives that are invariable, though.
