King Estate – Pinot Noir 2006 – Oregon

The nose is elegant and fruity. It reveals notes of red cherries and dried cherry associated with a hint of plum, blackberry as well as slight touches of leather (in the background) and a touch of spices (cardamom, pepper, a fine hint of Zan). The palate is fruity, mineral, frank and offers a beautiful fat and tension. On the palate this wine expresses notes of blackberry and black cherry associated with a few slight notes of blueberry (in the background), dried black fruit (blackberry, plum, a hint of blueberry, a hint of black cherry) as well as slight woody / toasted notes in the background. Good length. Juiciness in the mouth.
