King Estate Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2022

Pinot Noir from Willamette Valley, Oregon

Winemaker Notes (for the 2021 Vintage)

Whole clusters are destemmed then allowed to cold oak for 48 hours with daily pump overs. Some whole clusters are left intact in select lots for additional complexity. During fermentation, 10% of juice is bled off using the Saignée method for further concentration of flavor and color. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel open top tanks with daily punch downs. Aged in French oak barrels for 10 months.

This is a beautifully complex wine with elegant fruit and structure. Classic Pinot Noir aromas and flavors of dark fruit – black raspberry, marionberry, blueberry and ripe dark cherry – are joined by accents of black tea, clove, vanilla, toast, orange zest and forest floor. Supple tannins and bright acidity on the palate lead to a coating finish with lingering spiciness.

Food Pairing 

Pairs well with roasted poultry, salmon, or mushroom dishes.
