Savory and dancing around with zippy acidity with enough fruit to carry it.

Sep 14th, 2016Intensely perfumed, Aldelsheim’s commemorative 2014 Breaking Ground Pinot Noir is composed entirely of Chehalem Mountain Pinot Noir, 12% of which is from the winery's estate. Sumptuous black cherries, black raspberry, underbrush, earth, and heirloom roses grace the nose. It’s ruby-hued and more opaque than is typical for Oregon Pinot—hinting at this wine’s concentration and depth. The tannins are fine and velvety, with a surprising degree of lift coming from a burst tart cranberry-and-iron-tinged acidity that crescendos with dried orange peel and citrus notes. 13.5% ABV | Sample
