Walter Scott La Combe Verte Pinot Noir 2022

Walter Scott La Combe Verte Pinot Noir 2022 is a classic Oregon Pinot Noir that balances perfume, elegance, and depth with remarkable charm and value. Sourced from respected Eola-Amity Hills sites, it captures the vibrant, site-driven style that has made the Willamette Valley one of the world’s benchmark regions for Pinot Noir.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows the bright, transparent character typical of fine Pinot Noir, with enticing aromas of ripe red cherries, strawberries, cranberry, orange peel, mushrooms, earth, and a subtle touch of smoke. The bouquet is layered and expressive, with a savory edge that adds complexity and keeps the fruit feeling fresh rather than overly sweet. On the palate, the wine is defined by juicy red berry and citrus-toned fruit, earthy nuance, and the variety’s signature white pepper note. It has a polished, graceful texture with enough structure to age well for a few years, though it already rewards a bit of air if enjoyed young.

Production
La Combe Verte is assembled from fruit drawn from several Eola-Amity Hills vineyards, including Freedom Hill, Clos des Oiseaux, Sojourner, Prophet, and Justice. The region’s cool climate and volcanic soils help preserve freshness, aromatic lift, and firm natural acidity, all key traits in Oregon Pinot Noir. Winemaker Ken Pahlow crafts the wine to highlight purity of fruit, balance, and terroir expression.

Food & Serving
This Pinot Noir is a versatile partner for roasted duck, mushroom risotto, seared salmon, grilled chicken, pork tenderloin, and earthy vegetarian dishes. Serve it slightly cool, ideally around 14–16°C, and consider decanting for 30–60 minutes if opening young to let the aromas unfold more fully.
