Bethel Heights Vineyard – Estate 2014 Pinot Noir – Eola-Amity Hills – Willamette Valley

The nose reveals notes of cherry, cassis and slight touches of wild/ripe red berries associated with a hint of plum, slight woody touches, cacao as well as a very discreet grilled hint. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, well-built and offers a beautiful acid frame, minerality, a slight concentration as well as tension. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of red cherry and juicy/crushed cassis associated with small touches of toasted oak, chocolate, vanilla as well as a subtle hint of raspberry/crushed strawberry and subtle hints of vanilla. Tannins are firm. Good length.
