This elegant red showcases the delicate yet complex character that Pinot Noir enthusiasts crave. The nose offers an enticing bouquet of fresh red berries, subtle floral notes, and a hint of earthiness. On the palate, the wine is impeccably balanced with a medium body that glides effortlessly, revealing layers of ripe cherries, strawberries, and a touch of spice. Its vibrant acidity makes each sip refreshing and dynamic, while the soft tannins provide a silky mouthfeel that lingers gracefully. Perfect for pairing with a variety of dishes, this Pinot Noir is a testament to the exceptional terroir of the Yamhill-Carlton region and the meticulous craftsmanship of Landlines Estates.

Region:


Willamette Valley
Willamette Valley

The Willamette Valley is understandably most often associated with Pinot Noir. The cool-climate region has a unique relationship to this most delicate (and temperamental!) red wine grape. Lying on the same latitude as Burgundy in France, the Willamette Valley enjoys the perfect balance of sunshine and rain, proximity to the Pacific Ocean and protection on either side by the Coast Range and the Cascade Mountains. Along its 100 miles, the Willamette Valley boasts many distinct terroirs, so among its many brightly fruity, elegantly structured and blissfully fragrant Pinots, you'll also find exceptional Pinot Gris, Chardonnay and Riesling.
