Opulent tannins and a well-integrated acidity ply the palate
The low dosage makes it extra brut but that doesn’t come across as it has so much fruit and ripeness mixed with lees character that builds up to some light custard layering
mahogany smoked meat and tilled earth
But it's also intensely saline and mineral
Adelsheim Vineyard Pinot Noir, Willamette Valley, USA 2022 Case (6x750ml) Alto Adige Opulent tannins and a well-integratedWith a youthful transparent red hue, the 2022 Pinot Noir Willamette Valley is perfumed out of the gate with notes of fresh red cherries, sweet herbs, wet stone, and a hint of purple flowers shining through. Approachable and medium bodied, it has a delicate, savory, juicy feel, with fine tannins and a light, earthy note of beetroot on the finish. This is a very charming wine to drink over the next few years. 91 Pts Jeb Dunnuck
