🍒 Juicy, Savory Willamette Pinot with Lift

Perfumed, layered, and quietly complex — this small-production Willamette Valley Pinot Noir balances juicy red fruit with savory depth and a long, elegant finish.

The Moment

This is the bottle for when you want Oregon Pinot at its most expressive — aromatic, food-friendly, and built for slow dinners or thoughtful sipping. It’s the kind of wine that opens gently and keeps revealing more as the evening goes on.

Tasting Notes

Aromas
Lifted and perfumed with cherry, raspberry, and lavender, supported by hints of cinnamon, fresh-cut herbs, and delicate floral tones.

Palate
Juicy red fruit leads — cherry and raspberry — followed by subtle savory layers of mushroom, olive, and green tea. Balanced and expressive with beautiful clarity of fruit and earth.

Structure & Finish
Medium-bodied with fine, medium tannins and bright acidity. The finish is long, juicy, and gently savory, showing classic Willamette Valley elegance.
