The gorgeous new 2016 ‘Temperance Hill Vineyard’ Pinot Noir shows a marvelous combination of richness and astringency from this warm vintage in the Willamette Valley. On the nose this begins with aromatics reminiscent of black tea, peat moss, wild blackberry and cran-orange, providing some serious range aromatically. The mouthfeel entices as black and red fruits dance with wet stone and earthy tones on the palate. Seriously inpressive now this stunning Pinot Noir will continue to evolve for the next fifteen to twenty years.
