2007 Four Graces Pinot Noir

Posted on 09 July 2011.

The 2007 Four Graces Willamette Valley Pinot Noir is a rustic, yet silky and earthy wine with aromas of cherries and roses. It’s fruit forward and graceful with blackberry and mushroom undertones, with good structure and complexity that carries through from start to finish. Vibrant midpalate followed by a long, dry tannic finish. Don’t let the opening notes distract you; give this wine 10 minutes to breathe before tasting. Retails for around $29 but you can find it at wine shops for around $20, which is an outstanding deal for an Oregon Pinot of this quality. Kudos to winemaker Laurent Montalieu and vineyard manager Luke Pedotti for producing such a wonderful Willamette Valley Pinot noir. 11,000 case production. Drink now.

Rating: Very Good | $29 | 13.5% ABV
