Stoller Family Estate Reserve Pinot Noir 2015
Dundee Hills, Willamette Valley, Oregon, United StatesThe Stoller family established their Willamette property in 1943, and the vineyard 50 years later. Over the last 25 years, they have transformed the 400-acre property into the largest contiguous vineyard in Oregon’s Dundee Hills, and done it all sustainably, becoming the first winery in the world to receive LEED Gold certification along the way. This Reserve Pinot Noir comes from the oldest, and highest altitude blocks on their Dundee Hills estate. Candle wax, raspberry, tobacco worn leather, tight and fine spicing is polished by time in wood and bottle. Tannins are stretched and striated fine and grippy with tight wood, though they're thankfully more mere whisper at this point. There's a bright, taut vein stony minerality that carries this to a warming nutmeg dusted finish. Drinking well now.Tasted: 11 September 2019Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| BC | $70.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
