100% destemmed whole berry fermentation after maceration for 35 days, punch down twice daily during fermentation, 100% malolactic degradation, minimal stirring and intervention. 25% new French oak, 75% used for 11 months.
Brilliantly clear shimmering ruby, this 100% estate bottling of Willamette Valley Pinot Noir starts with a nose of sweet black cherry fruit with hints of rose petals and an earthy overtone of Oregon black truffle. The palate starts with a big attack of black cherry cola mellowing into a creamy strawberry mid-palate framed by velvety tannins. Food-friendly acid drives a very long finish with still more black cherry and baking spices.
