Seven of Hearts Willamette Valley Pinot noir 08

See all in-stock Oregon 2008 vintage Pinot noirs

A blend that incorporates the broad expression of the two very distinct Cost and Crawford Beck vineyards in the Eola-Amity Hills, coupled with the diverse volcanic and sedimentary components from the Luminous Hills vineyard in the Yamhill-Carlton District. Cinnamon clove spice beneath lots of violet. Rather fine and graceful aromas. Nice movement and polish in the mouth. Quite airy. Gains depth and substance, especially acidity. Finishes with touch of sweet, dusty herbs. Nice length and material.

2006 Vintage Tasting Notes

"This 2006 Pinot noir from the Dundee Hills appellation showcases floral perfume notes, bright red fruits, rich mouthfeel, earthy minerality, and subtle exotic spiciness."

"A blend of two thirds old vine Pommard and one third Dijon 777 Pinot noir clones, this wine marries breadth and depth for richness and intensity designed for near term appeal, as well as the ability to develop for several years in the bottle."

"The Seven of Hearts 2006 Pinot noir was aged sixteen months in one-year-old French oak barrels, providing integration and soft tannins lending to the overall complexity and balance." -The Winery
