Ken Wright Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

Ken Wright Willamette Valley Pinot Noir is an exquisite Pinot Noir from the renowned Willamette Valley in Oregon produced by Ken Wright Cellars. Oregon is celebrated for its ideal climate and soil conditions, producing some of the world's finest Pinot Noir grapes. The grapes used in this wine are meticulously selected from various vineyard sites within the valley, with each site contributing unique characteristics to the final blend. At Ken Wright Cellars, winemaking is a labor of love and a precise science. The grapes are hand sorted and fermented in small, open top fermenters to ensure maximum flavor extraction. This wine has an alcohol by volume (ABV) of 13%.

The fermentation process is carefully monitored to preserve the fruit's integrity, allowing its natural flavors and aromas to shine. Minimal intervention is crucial, as it helps maintain the true essence of the vineyard sites. After fermentation, the wine is aged in 100% French oak barrels for approximately one year. This aging process imparts subtle oak nuances and enhances the wine's complexity, resulting in a beautifully balanced Pinot Noir teeming with fresh red and blue fruits surrounded with savory notes of leather, cola, and hints of clove. The palate is exceptionally balanced with an energetic texture and finish.
