Wine Review: This bright red colored Pinot Noir from Ken Wright opens with a fragrant strawberry and red plum bouquet. On the palate, this wine is light bodied, slightly acidic and juicy. The flavor profile is a cranberry and mineral blend with notes of strawberry, pomegranate, oak and a hint of black raspberry. The finish is dry and its juicy flavors and acidity show nice length. I would pair this Oregon Pinot with a pork roast. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: Floral and spice focused. Blanketed in a quilt of savory complexity, bright red fruits spar with earthen umami notes. Velvety tannins round the finish.
