Reserve

2009 Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

The Lange Winery Reserve Pinot Noir from the 2009 vintage is a remarkable expression of the Willamette Valley, showcasing the region's renowned terroir. This lovely red wine features a medium-bodied profile that offers a delightful balance between freshness and richness. The acidity is bright, enhancing its mouthwatering character and ensuring a delightful experience with each sip. On the palate, the fruit intensity is prominent, revealing notes of ripe cherries, strawberries, and hints of dark berries that dance harmoniously with subtle earthy undertones. The tannins are soft and well-integrated, providing structure without overpowering the wine's elegance. As a dry wine, it makes for an excellent pairing with a wide variety of dishes, highlighting its versatility and approachability.

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.
