Pinot Noir Dundee Hills, Domaine Drouhin Oregon
Description
Handpicked then hand sorted and de-stemmed. Fermentations are long and careful. 20% new oak which allows the character of the wine and the vintage to show through. Barrels are custom made in Burgundy, using oak from France's best forests. On the nose and on the palate, it is very much a classic expression the Dundee Hills property, with a touch more black cherry and black fruits than usual. The acidity is bright, and overall, there is nice structure and very good length. This wine will age exceptionally well, easily more than 10 years.

Producer Details
When Joseph Drouhin established his eponymous négociant company in 1880, he could scarcely have imagined that his family name would one day grace an estate in Oregon. Purchased by his grandson Robert in 1987, his children Véronique and Philippe, who oversee winemaking and viticulture respectively, are also on hand to ensure the Drouhin style is present whilst simultaneously allowing Oregon’s unique terroir to shine through.
