2018 Giving Tree Pinot Noir
Oregon
Located just three miles from the famed Freedom Hill Vineyard in the foothills of the Oregon Coast Range, Giving Tree Vineyard is a relatively cool site, with a climate shaped by winds that blow regularly, cooling the vines, lengthening the growing season, and helping the fruit retain excellent acidity resulting in wines that are built for ageability. Intense burgundy or crimson in color. The nose of black plums and cherries with cassis, peppercorn, dried herbs and toast carry the intensity further. A powerful structure framing wild, untamed fruit with marked acidity and firm, textural tannins that mellow on the finish.
