“”Dundee Hills Pinot Noir captures the essence of its celebrated appellation with a seductive bouquet of ripe plum, ocean breeze, warm spices, and a hint of cocoa. On the palate, luscious red fruits are balanced by elegant tannins, with a touch of brininess and mouthwatering acidity. The finish lingers with spiced oak and basalt minerality, reflecting its terroir-driven character. Ready to enjoy now, this Pinot Noir promises to evolve beautifully for years, offering a captivating experience with each bottle.” Kimberly (Kim) Abrahams – Winemaker for Archery Summit

“No one is naïve about the difficulties and challenges of growing Pinot Noir away from its home in Burgundy (even there, of course, it isn’t easy). Pinot has taken to Oregon’s Willamette Valley with remarkable success, though, and especially to the red-soiled Dundee Hills. This 2021 wine is a fine example of the charm, balance and satisfaction that fine Dundee Hills Pinot can provide. Translucent scarlet in colour, with magnetically attractive raspberry scents, once on the palate the wine is soft-contoured yet energetic, with arresting intensity of fruit. Here the raspberry shades into something more curranty and tenacious, and there are refreshing bitter notes in the finish, too, with a hint of earthiness perhaps derived from the clays of volcanic origin in which the vines grow. The warm edge of cool climate? Perhaps – and it makes for beautiful drinking.” Decanter 97 points

“This is bright and red-fruited with savory herbs, cocoa powder and nut shell. Medium- to full-bodied with compact, chocolaty tannins and velvety texture. It is plush, long and polished with attractive cocoa-dusted dark cherry and spicy notes to close.” James Suckling 94 points

“A dynamic, generous red, with expressive raspberry and strawberry flavors highlighted by rose petal and orange zest. Builds tension and richness toward polished tannins.” Wine Spectator 94 points

“The 2021 Pinot Noir Dundee Hills opens with a lovely air of sweet spices and dusty black cherries. It’s soft and soothing, with a pure blend of ripe red fruits giving way to rosy inner florals. It finishes grippy and long as hints of sour citrus and savory herbs linger on.” Antonio Galloni Vinous 92 points
