2023 Founders’ Reserve Pinot Noir
Willamette Valley Vineyards was established in 1983 by a dedicated group of wine enthusiasts committed to producing among the highest quality Pinot Noirs while being good stewards of the land. As a tribute to these individuals, we created this special blend of Pinot Noir.
On the Nose: Bright ruby in color, the wine opens with aromas of rose, black cherry tart, baking spices and toasted oak.
On the Palate: A fruit-forward palate of cranberry and raspberry is accented by dried herbs, ginger, black tea and white pepper. Integrated tannins and balanced acidity frame the medium-bodied wine.
Food Pairings: Enjoy with classic pairings like salmon with wild rice, lamb lollipops, pork tenderloin and mushroom risotto and desserts like chocolate torte.
Accolades:
93 points - James Suckling
"Aromas of black cherries, raspberries, baking spices and forest floor. The palate is polished and vibrant, with fine tannins, fresh red and dark fruit and subtle earthy undertones. Silky and balanced, with a persistent, savory finish. Drink or hold."
