2024 St. Innocent - Pinot Noir Villages Cuvee Willamette Valley (750ml)
The entry point into one of the Willamette Valley's most respected estates, founded in 1988 by winemaker Mark Vlossak and now including fruit from the estate's own Enchanted Way Vineyard. Robust sweet spice aromas with lovely black cherry, smoky berry, and dark rose on the nose; juicy and pungent on the palate with dark cherry, wild strawberry, allspice, and cinnamon with a touch of smoke, beautifully balanced with soft tannins and fresh acidity, the finish slowly fading into supple dried fruit and spice. A versatile, food-friendly Oregon Pinot at a strong price. Drink now–2030.
