Larry Stone (the ninth Master Sommelier in the U.S), David Honig and Dominique Lafon’s new Willamette Valley project is one of the most exciting finds from Oregon in recent times, highlighting the impeccable growing sites in Oregon. Their 2017 Eola-Amity Hills Estate Pinot Noir is dense, beautifully structured, and Burgundian in style with notes of juicy black cherry and raspberry dashed with a splash of spicy herbs. It finishes long, focused, and mineral-laden.
