Ponzi Vineyards Tavola Pinot Noir 2019

Willamette Valley, Oregon, United StatesDick and Nancy Ponzi moved their young family to the Willamette Valley in the late 1960s with a spirit of adventure and a passion for making world class Pinot Noir. For the last 25 years, this philosophy has been carried on by the Ponzi family's second generation: President and Director of Sales and Marketing, Anna Maria Ponzi and Winemaker Luisa Ponzi. Their 130 acres of estate vineyards are LIVE Certified Sustainable. In 2021, the winery was purchased by Champagne's Bollinger family. This sees 20% new oak, providing more expansiveness to the soft, plush palate, one caressed by plump raspberry, juicy plum, and strawberry compote. Tannins are equally soft and welcoming, and this friendly pinot finishes with a dusting of baking spice.
