About the wine
Inky, intense and oh-so-smooth Oregon Pinot with a silky kick
- This refined red is deep, dark and delicious from start to finish with a juicy texture and lush, ripe dark fruit flavors, plus just a hint of savory pepper on a full finish that lasts and lasts and lasts. Thirsty yet?
- Chris sourced this premium Pinot from a pair of top vineyards in the exclusive Yamhill-Carlton corner of the Willamette Valley, where conditions are perfect for growing intense, otherworldly Pinot Noir.
- Angels voted Chris their first-ever Rookie of the Year last year, and wines like this are exactly why! He takes Angel support and turns it into world-class wine treasures like this pristine Pinot.
Best before
It is ready to drink now, however will get better with time. The blend has enough structure and acidity to hold up forever in bottle. It will continue to get better for 10+ years. Not that it will last that long though.
Serving advice
A bit of decanting or opening an hour before drinking may be beneficial for the first year or so. It is wound pretty tight and will continue to get better and open up as it sits open.
Food match
This is Pinot Noir so 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. My favorite is a ribeye or a delicately done lamb chop.
