2023 Pinot Noir, The Hazelfern Vineyard, Chehalem Mountains
Elegance and grace from our estate vineyard. Aromas of farm fresh Santa Rosa red plums, cherries, and wild red currants are accented by rose petals, blackberry bramble, cardamom and a rush of baking spices like cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg. On the palate, this wine is plush with a salty minerality that carries the long finish.
