BENTON LANE PINOT NOIR WILLAMETTE VALLEY 2021 750ML

Ripe red plums, pie cherries and mountain blueberry interplay with exotic spices, coastal forest Floor, and dried Flower petals on the nose of this classically styled Pinot Noir. Full, plush, and elegant textures are held together smartly with fine grained tannins and a gentle, bright acidity. The wine finishes with raspberries, dried cranberries, and lingering earthy plum.

‘2015 was another fine, warm year with full ripeness in the fruit which allowed the fruit notes in the wine to be more black fruit driven (boysenberry, black cherry, blueberry and cassis) than red fruit (cherry, cranberry and raspberry). This brings more depth and concentration to the wine, along with a fine balance with all components getting along well with each other. This makes the wine a synergy and much more enjoyable. The wine is rich and deep with flavors of boysenberry, cassis and white pepper. On the finish is the sweet flavor of toasted oak from over-priced French wine barrels. This wine will wow when served with roast lamb. View More
