Tasting Notes

A captivating Oregon Pinot that balances purity of fruit with a savory edge. Aromas of wild cherry, forest floor, and rose petal lead into a silky palate of red plum, cranberry, and baking spice. Subtle oak influence and fine-grained tannins add depth without overshadowing its natural vibrancy.
