Started with a Rosé this evening and ultimately had to go to the cellar to pull out something more substantial for the grilled salmon and our garden grown grilled yellow wax beans. This Pinot is one we brought back from Oregon a few years ago. We stumbled upon this winery in the middle of nowhere and it was such a serendipitous encounter. A more assertive version of Pinot Noir, darker plum colour with a notes of cherries, blueberries, menthol, Christmas baking spices & violets. Perfectly balanced acidity and mostly spectacular.
