The Four Graces Pinot Noir Willamette Valley 2005

Winemaker's Notes:

Carefully blended from the best barrels (80% new French oak), and bottled unfined and unfiltered for optimum expression, this reserve wine is an outstanding representation of Dundee Hills Pinot Noir. Aromas of black plum, licorice and cedar pave the way for a dense palate of ripe red fruits such as raspberries and cherries. Hints of rhubarb with spices and soft vanilla contributed by the oak add complexity. The mouthfeel is at first crisp and vibrant, evolving towards refined tannins with the red fruit flavors returning to linger in a long finish.

The Four Graces:

STEVE AND PAULA BLACK began the pursuit of a dream in 2003 when they purchased the 110-acre vineyard located in the Red Hills of Dundee and created The Four Graces. The Four Graces is named in honor of their four daughters – Alexis, Vanessa, Christiana, and Jillian. Brother Nicholas is recognized on the Reserve as "Keeper of The Four Graces." The Blacks wanted to make consistently outstanding Pinot Noirs representative of this unique terroir. They are committed to making rich, complex wines where the fruit may be elegantly expressed in the Four Graces wines. The wines are hand-crafted in small lots using traditional techniques coupled with the most modern technology in wine-making. Read less

This might be one of the best and most unique pinot noirs to ever come from the Dundee Hills. I drink a lot (A LOT) of Oregon Pinot Noir and I love them, but you can certainly taste many of the similarities between them - not this bottle. If you are a true Oregon Pinot Noir lover, you must taste this wine.
