About the wine
This delicate, silky red is classic Oregon Pinot at its most decadent
- This sultry, opulent Pinot pulses with lush, mouth-filling flavors of blackberry and blueberry that course with a smooth intensity through an oh-so-long, lavish finish.
- With your support on his side, Chris sourced this prized Pinot from a pair of coveted vineyards in the exclusive Yamhill-Carlton region of Willamette Valley. This tiny corner of Oregon wine country grows some of the most revered Pinot in the entire Pacific Northwest – and your funding gives Chris first pick of its fabled fruit.
- Bottles of Pinot Noir from this treasured sub-region usually go for north of $60, but for backing Chris to bring Angels a luxurious taste of Oregon Pinot at its best, you get it for less than a third of that price!
Best before
It is ready to drink now, but will develop even more depth with time. The blend has enough structure and acidity to hold up forever in bottle. It will continue to get better for 10+ years.
Serving advice
A bit of decanting or opening the bottle an hour before drinking may be beneficial within the first year or so. It is wound pretty tight and will continue to get better and open up as it sits in the glass.
Food match
This is Pinot Noir, so it could go with anything from a roasted root vegetable medley to pork and chicken, but is rich and dark enough to hold up to red meat as well. Chris's personal favorites are a ribeye or a delicately done lamb chop.
