Pinot Noir Willamette Valley

Pinot Noir Willamette Valley Wine Details
Price: $26.00 per bottle

Description: The 2004 vintage is nothing short of spectacular! Even at the very earliest stages of harvest there was a feeling of greatness rumbling in the Willamette Valley. At Elk Cove Vineyards, we saw unheard of levels of ripeness and concentration. This 2002 Pinot Noir Willamette Valley gives beautiful black fruit combined with an intensity of earth showing on the nose. The palate follows the bouquet with sweet black cherries intertwined nicely with tar and spice notes, finishing off with a bit of tobacco while acknowledging the purity of fruit and acidity. Bottled unfined and unfiltered, this wine has aging potential up to ten years with cool cellaring.
