Helioterra Vintner's Select Pinot noir 2010

Review:

The Vintner’s Select is just that. The best barrel was selected from each vineyard site, and then blended to create a very special wine. Flavors and aromatics are much richer and more mysterious than the Willamette Valley. It demonstrates great depth and elegance with a touch more toast and a greater potential for aging. The wine was aged for ten and a half months in French oak barrels and has 36% new oak influence. The grapes were from Apolloni Vineyard (42%), Veeman Vineyard (42%) and Lia's Vineyard (16%) Just 49 cases produced.
