2014 Résonance Willamette Valley Oregon Pinot Noir

13.5% alc., $35. Maison Louis Jdot’s first wine project outside of Burgundy since founding in 1859. Vinified at Trisaetum. A blend of Resonance, Decouverte and other vineyards in a Willamette Valley cuvée. (not the Resonance Vineyard designate bottling). Aged 13 months in French oak barrels, 20% new. · Moderately light reddish purple color in the glass. Pleasant and giving aromas of cherry and sous-bois. Nicely composed, with inviting flavors of darker cherry and red raspberry in a mid weight style that is quite forward. Refreshing, with impeccable balance, a deft touch of oak, and some finishing intensity. Score: 91. Reviewed December 13, 2016
