Lange Estate, Willamette Valley (Oregon) Pinot Noir 2012

Sep 8, 2015

By Rich Cook

Very full bodied for an Oregon Pinot Noir, but not at all fat or lacking in acidity.  Deep black cherry fruit and cardamom with light dusty earth aromas set you up for mouth filling black cherry, chalky tannins and a nice light touch of stems that give a little peppery bite.  I’d go with a spicy roast chicken as a pairing.
