2022 Crawford Beck Vineyard Pinot Noir
Originally planted by a NASA engineer in 1995, this small vineyard sits at the northern edge of the Eola-Amity Hills AVA on volcanic soils. On the nose, aromas of blueberry pie, rose, pencil shavings, treacle, fig, and dried black cherry create a rich and enticing bouquet. The palate is round and voluptuous, offering notes of red candy, dark fruit, and licorice, all wrapped in a silky texture. With excellent extension and depth, this wine highlights the balance between elegance and intensity, reflecting the vineyard's unique terroir.
