Patton Valley Vineyard, Willamette Valley (Oregon) Pinot Noir 2013

Nov 30, 2016

By Michael Apstein

From a warmer site compared to their 10-Acre Bottling, this West Block Pinot Noir delivers a riper, yet elegant, profile with appealing herbal character.  Less angular, it’s a fleshier, but still balanced, style of Pinot Noir.  Patton Valley Vineyard must think they are of comparable quality since they are priced the same.  I agree.  My advice is to buy they both, invite friends and discover the magic of terroir.
