The 2014 WillaKenzie Estate 'Gisele' is a fantastic bottling that showcases this wonderful warm vintage. This was sourced from three Oregon AVAs (Willamette Valley, Yamhill-Carlton and Dundee Hills) and was aged in 20% new French oak for 10 months prior to bottling. The resultant wine is an intensely mineral driven Pinot Noir that begins with aromatics of red cherry, red raspberry, cremini mushroom, pomegranate and black tea and hints of orange rind. There are lovely flavors of red cherry and cranberry with guava puree, mandarin orange and suggestions of tarragon. This is an absolutely delightful Pinot Noir, showing both poise and incredible range. (Best 2016-2025) - November, 2016 (OB)
