Hyland Vineyard Pinot Noir
McMinnville, Willamette Valley, Oregon, USA
Dark, clear ruby. Wildly aromatic nose of violets and black cherries. Medium bodied palate echoes the nose flipping the primaries and adding a hint of vanilla and a smaller hint of tarry anise. Low tannins. Medium plus acidity. McMinnville’s Hyland Vineyard struts its dark floral stuff in this classic Willamette PN. Pair with equally classic fare: ham, pork tenderloin, duck, and of course, Pacific salmon. Drink now through 2029, when it develops into a more savory offering.

Love the juicy cherry fruit along with some raspberry notes. Black pepper makes a cameo but doesn't detract from the roundness of this wine. Single vineyard deliciousness that blew away the Marsannay we had last week.
