2022 Lingua Franca, Estate Pinot Noir, Eola-Amity Hills, Oregon, USA

Description

This Estate Pinot 2022 has a large proportion of fruit from some of our finest sites, with nearly half the grapes coming from the two best Blocks 1-2, planted with PN777 clone and another 17% from Block 3 with the same material and slightly deeper soil. Another 31% is sourced from two blocks of the very structural PN 943, at the top center and middle of the highest blocks. 

The 2022 Estate is a fresh, ripe with lovely layers of spice, five spice. Well-structured with great balance and length. This wine punches well above its price point. A great choice for your house pinot noir.

About this wine

Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir is probably the most frustrating, and at times infuriating, wine grape in the world. However when it is successful, it can produce some of the most sublime wines known to man. This thin-skinned grape which grows in small, tight bunches performs well on well-drained, deepish limestone based subsoils as are found on Burgundy's Côte d'Or. Pinot Noir is more susceptible than other varieties to over cropping - concentration and varietal character disappear rapidly if yields are excessive and yields as little as 25hl/ha are the norm for some climats of the Côte d`Or.
