Pike Road Wines Pinot Noir Shea Vineyard Yamhill-Carlton District 2018 750 ML

Very seductive aromas of rose-like red flowers lead the nose. Wet stones and red fruits, too. The palate has a very plush and attractively ripe core of fleshy cherries and a smoothly cast finish that holds really fresh. Drink or hold.\n Producer Information\n We've farmed in Oregon for five generations and grown wine grapes in Oregon's Willamette Valley for over four decades. After years of producing some of Oregon's most acclaimed wines at Elk Cove Vineyards, we decided to create a new Oregon wine company focused on quality Pinot Noir under $20. We named this wine project Pike Road after the winding road that runs adjacent to our vineyards at the foothills of Oregon's Coast Range Mountains. Pike Road is made from estate grown grapes and a smaller amount of fruit we purchase. We are committed to preserving small family farms here in the Willamette Valley through our relationships with partner growers, some of whom we have worked with for decades. This is the best place in the New World to grow Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris, and we are so pleased to be here at Pike Road.
