Bright dark ruby color black cherry, raspberry fruit, lemon zest and dusty mineral notes, high toned black cherry, raspberry fruit tightly entwined with crisp acidity and polished tannins. The idea behind this wine is to show off and celebrate the quality and diversity of Pinot Noir in the Willamette Valley. The fruit is sourced from premier sites identified by the winemaking team and includes many different Pinot Noir clones. It spends almost a year in oak 15 percent new and the remainder neutral. The result is an approachable wine at an affordable price to be enjoyed young.
