Try this website. It gives the phonetics of how to properly pronounce most wine varietals. It also gives definitions of the region and grape.

Are you getting stuck specifically with Pinot Noir? If so, the proper pronunciation is
Pea-no No-(w)are. The "w" kind of slides right into the "are" part of the word.

Most wines have french or italian names. Go to a bookstore and get dictionaries for French and Italian and read the pronunciation guides.
Chablis= sha-blee
Sauternes= so-turn
Petit Syrah= petee surrah
Pinot Noir= pee know nwar
Pinot Grigio=pee know gree-zhee-oh
Cabernet =Cab-er-nay
Cabernet Sauvignon= cab-er-nay -sew-vin-yon
etc.
