Wine Details
Price:
$18.00 per bottle
Description:
This Pinot Noir is a blend from three vineyards on the Chehalem Ridge in the North end of the Willamette Valley: Hawk's View Vineyard, Aubre Vert Vineyard, and Nickolas Vineyard. We produced 997 case and it was bottled in August of 2005. 2004 produced wines that were much lighter in style than recent vintages, due mainly to the wet spring reducing the amount of grapes that set on the vine a nice summer but a cooler than average fall that threatened to rain almost every day during harvest. Our 2004 Pinot Noir is unfined and unfiltered. It has a nice blend of black and red cherries and currant on the palatte, with a earthy, spicy finish that is soft yet lingers. We had it with bbq-ed ribs and chicken and a green salad with fresh walnuts and dried cranberries.
