Roche Pinot Noir Artist Willamette Valley 2024

Willamette Valley, Oregon, United StatesThis is an elegant replacement pinot noir, a collaboration between the Naramata-based Roche family and longtime friends who grow grapes in Oregon’s Willamette Valley. The colour is medium pale, with darker threads of blue/black fruit, subtle oak spice and light, silky tannins. The tannins are refined, the palate silky, favouring elegance over power. The finish is lively and super Oregon savoury, with enough uniqueness to merit a place in the Artist Release. Food pairings include game birds with sage stuffing, or Morel mushroom ravioli.Tasted: 17 April 2026Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
