Lavinea - Pinot Noir - Eola-Amity Hills
Overview: This wine highlights the complex diversity that is the Eola-Amity Hills and delivers on the character of the 2021 vintage. The year began with an epic ice storm in the winter, followed by rain at flowering, then a record-setting heat event. After that, we experienced a relatively dry growing season with a few heat events in August, followed by welcome rains and a cooling period in September and October. Typical of the vintage the wine is rich with generous fruit that remains fresh from practiced restraint in the cellar.Ā
100% Pinot Noir, 40% Pommard and 667 clones and co-fermented, 60% 777 and 115 clones and co-fermented, taken from 4 different blocks in the Eola-Amity Hills. 4- and 6-day cold soak, no inoculations, pressed to tank for settling, racked to barrel then allowed for ML to finish. Mix of once and twice filled French oak barrels.
Tasting Notes: The sweetest red raspberries you ever did sniff are contrasted by the fresh aromas of recently cut grass and lemon peel. The palate showcases a wall of cherries, more citrus and a dazzling one-two punch of brisk acidity and chewy tannins.Ā
Pairing: Chicken and turkey
Points: 94, Wine Spectator
Format / ABV:Ā 750 ml/13.2%
