Résonance Pinot Noir 2018, Willamette Valley, Oregon

“Our Willamette Valley Pinot Noir represents a blend of the finest vineyards in the Willamette Valley and includes grapes from our own estate vineyards, Résonance and Découverte. We work with like-minded wine growers throughout the area who share our commitment to cultivating terroir-driven Pinot Noir. The result is a cuvée that offers an authentic representation of the Willamette Valley AVA.” Tasting Notes: Nice intense and bright color. The nose is very fruity, with both red and black fruit, and has delicate spices—licorice and cinnamon—and floral notes. The palate reveals a balanced wine, with an excellent freshness enhanced by lacy minerality and the delicate flavors of cherries, blackberries, and raspberries. Aged 13 months in French oak barrels, 20% new.
