2015 Knudsen Vineyards Estate Reserve Dundee Hills Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

14.1% alc., pH 3.44, TA 0.55, 225 cases, $70, screwcap. Clone 777 planted in Jory soil. Aged 16 months in French oak barrels, 35% new. · Moderately light garnet color in the glass. Welcoming aromas of fresh cherry, spice and rose petal. Upon entry, the wine engages with riveting and luscious black cherry, black raspberry and plum flavors accented with a charming dose of spice. A sophisticated wine that is truly special with impeccable balance, a seamless texture and a grand finish that lingers until the next sip. This collectible wine was even more seductive when tasted the following day from a previously opened and re-corked bottle when my wife and I eagerly polished it off. Score: 96.
