The nose is inviting and complex, with aromas of plum tart, cherry, wild berries, and a subtle smoky, gamey edge that adds depth and intrigue.\n\nThe palate is full-flavored and long, driven by ripe cherry, blackberry, and boysenberry, followed by savory hints of freshly smoked bacon. It has a bold, intense profile for Pinot Noir, with enough structure and energy to suggest a few years of graceful aging, while still being delicious now.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis wine is made from 100% Pinot Noir sourced from Oregon’s Umpqua, Willamette, and Rogue Valleys, regions known for offering the cool-climate conditions this grape thrives in.
