Alexana Terroir Series Pinot Noir 2021
Dundee Hills, Willamette Valley, Oregon, United StatesThough named Terroir Series, this is a Willamette-wide blend of various soils and clones. The wine is a selection of barrels from the dry-farmed younger blocks of the Revana vineyard in Dundee Hills, along with vineyards in Yamhill-Carlton, Eola-Amity, Chehalem Mountains, and McMinnville, and clones Pommard, 115, 777, Wadenswil, 667, La Tache, 943, 114, 828, Coury, and 113. Each lot is separately native fermented whole berry before aging 11 months in French oak (23% new). Forest, wild cherry, fresh moss, and pretty florals rule the silken palate, sided with fine, long tannins and finishing with a gently warming baking spice note. Quite polished and fresh, this medium-bodied wine is ideal now with any mushroom/duck dishes.Tasted: 06 July 2023Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| ON | $68.00 | 750ml | consignment |
