2021 Ken Wright ‘Yamhill Carlton’ Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

DEC95 A delicious wine from Ken Wright that shows the Yamhill-Carlton AVA signatures. The marine soils throughout the AVA lend the wines a great aromatic profile; this bottling is no different, with rose petals and violets coming to the fore, followed by whispers of savoury spice. The palate is fresh tart and sweet berries and savoury herbaceousness. Tay berries and bramble fruits give way to a kiss of baking chocolate, clove spice, and fresh mint carries the finish.
