Founded in 1982, Montinore Estate is a winery located in Oregon's northern Willamette Valley. The estate's vineyards span approximately 80 hectares and are certified biodynamic. The winery is particularly renowned for its excellent Pinot Noirs, but also produces a wide range of wines from Italian varietals. Red Cap is the quintessential Washington state Pinot Noir. The grapes come from a variety of vineyards located in the Willamette Valley, with varying soil types. The microclimate of this wine region favors full and slow ripening of the grapes, resulting in wines of great concentration and freshness. In the glass, the wine reveals a bright and vibrant ruby ​​color. Its aromatic profile is fragrant with fresh notes of red fruits such as currant, raspberry, and cherry, alternating with earthy notes, and hints of eucalyptus and graphite, forming a broad and complex whole. On the palate, it has a medium body and fine and perfectly integrated tannins. It is lively, energetic, and refreshing, with a juicy character and a long, smooth finish. It is versatile when paired with food. It is excellent with roasted salmon, tomato tarte tatin, poultry, and duck.
