The 2021 Willamette Valley Pinot noir is a blend made to capture the freshness of the vintage. To achieve this, this wine was bottled after 8 months of aging as opposed to our standard 15 months of ?levage so we could preserve the bright fruit character. Additionally, a modest 20% new French oak was used to achieve pleasant oak nuances while not overpowering the blend. The resulting wine is fruit focused and true to our terroir with great structural tannins. The purity of the raspberry and black cherry fruit coupled with notes of forest floor and dried flower.
