Description
Garnet in color, this wine opens up with aromas of bright cherry, plum pie, cocoa nibs, and hints of baking spice. The palate is rich and well-balanced with notes of raspberry jam, candied cranberry, wild bramble, and a lingering pepper finish. Incredible depth and concentration complement rich tannins and lead into a smooth, medium finish. Pair with french onion soup topped with a warm baguette slices lightly brushed with olive oil, an Italian sausage and arugula pizza topped with pickled red onions, or a spicy tortellini with zucchini and tomatoes.
The delicate nature of Oregon Pinot Noir requires a soft hand in the cellar. The clusters were 100% destemmed with a few select lots having small amounts of stems added back to the fermenter for phenolic augmentation. The Must underwent an extended cold soak, ranging from five days to two weeks, and during fermentation both punch-down and pump-over techniques were utilized. We monitor the separate lots and tailor the extraction methods to the needs of each one. We find this style of reactive winemaking is the best way to coax the optimal terroir qualities from Pinot Noir, truly exemplifying the prime coastal vineyards from where it is sourced. The wine was aged for ten months in a mix of new and seasoned French oak and racked upon completion of malolactic fermentation.
