Lemelson Vineyard Pinot Noir

The 2023 Willamette Valley Pinot noir is a blend made to capture the freshness of the 
vintage. To achieve this, this wine was bottled after 8 months of aging as opposed to our 
standard 15 months of élevage so we could preserve the bright fruit character.  
Additionally, a modest 20% new French oak was used to achieve pleasant oak nuances 
while not overpowering the blend.  The resulting wine is fruit focused and true to our 
terroir with great structural tannins.  The purity of the raspberry and black cherry fruit 
coupled with notes of forest floor and dried flower make this wine an excellent dinner 
companion.
