Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
Borrowed from French, where 'pinot' derives from the Old French word for pine cone, referring to the tightly clustered, pinecone-like shape of the grapes on the vine, and 'noir' means black. The term was adopted globally into English and Italian (as 'pinot nero') to designate both the black-skinned wine grape variety and the red wine produced from it.
