2007 Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

The Methven Family Vineyards Reserve 2007 Pinot Noir is a striking expression of Willamette Valley's unique terroir. Displaying a vibrant red color, this wine captivates with its elegant bouquet of cherry and raspberry intertwined with subtle notes of baking spices. On the palate, it unfolds gracefully, featuring a silky body that is both medium-full and inviting. The acidity is bright and mouthwatering, providing a delightful balance to the rich fruit flavors. Tannins are notably soft, enhancing the overall smoothness without overwhelming the palate. This delightful wine is dry, making it an excellent choice for food pairing or enjoying on its own, showcasing the true character of this celebrated Oregon region.

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.
