2007 Ken Wright Cellars Savoya Vineyard Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
13.5%
alc., $47. The vineyard is located in the Yamhill-Carlton District, owned by Ken and
Karen Wright, and managed by Mark Gould. Five clones.
·
Sensual nose displaying
bright red berries and red plum aromas. Packed with hi-tone cherry, berry and
pomegranate flavors that are caressed by ripe fine-grain tannins. The finish shows a
zippy acidity. The fruit is linear at this stage with hints of persistence but the potential
is evident.
