Here in Germany Spätburgunder is fairly ubiquitous and you can get drinkable ones even in the €5-€10 range. I quite like them. It's amazing just how different Pinot Noir varies from region to region. A Spätburgunder has a very different taste than a typical Burgundy, which of course varies considerably from American Pinot Noir. You can also get good Alsacian Pinot Noir and you can even get a different style yet in the Côtes du Jura.
