Estate Pinot Noir 2021
From Our Sommeliers
“When Dr. Revana set out to make world class wine in the Dundee Hills, I have to believe this is what he had in mind. With layers that are akin to a Russian nesting doll, it is the true embodiment of "what can be" from Willamette. This dreadnought Pinot is full of structure and showcases both bright cherry and brambly darker fruit all at once. The hint of savory herbs and baking spice float along while the acidity provides lift and keeps you coming back for more. I have paired this with everything from rich charcuterie to smoked venison and it never disappoints. Treat your guests to the sensory experience that rivals that of the great wines of Burgundy at a fraction of the price“ - Adam Elliot
