About the wine
Oregon Pinot with historic roots!
This primo Pinot from esteemed Oregon winemaker Ken Wright is delicate, yet mouthfilling – lingering longingly sip after sip with lightly spiced berry flavors like cherry, strawberry and raspberry.
With Angel support, Ken harvested Pinot from a few of the Willamette Valley’s original Pinot vineyards (planted in 1966!) in the subregion of Dundee Hills. It’s a Pinot frontier Ken was one of the first to champion – here, he knows the fruit is outstanding, and he’s deftly guided it into a masterpiece.
“This wine is a perfect introduction to the place that originally put Oregon on the world stage of compelling Pinot Noir,” says Ken. Stock up and savor Oregon Pinot history.
Best before
To enjoy the wine during its youthful, primary fruit-driven profile, I recommend 1-3 years of aging. For the development of secondary aromatics, I recommend 3-8 years and more.
Serving advice
If opened in the first few years, decanting helps the wine develop quickly. If opened with several years of cellaring, simply allow a few minutes of being opened before enjoying.
Food match
Incredible with game birds or a Chanterelle mushroom tart.
Contains sulphites
Always check the label
