Montinore Estate Reserve Pinot Noir 2021

Tillfälligt slut

Drink it now or cellar for up to 15 years. No need to decant, but best to open it half an hour before service. Located in Oregon, Montinore Estate is a winery founded in the early 1980s that produces premium, certified biodynamic wines. The company owns approximately 80 hectares of vineyards spread across the Tualatin Hills AVA, planted with Pinot Noir and other Italian and international varieties. The Estate Reserve Pinot Noir is the result of the finest grapes of each vintage from the estate's vineyards. After harvest, fermentation occurs separately for each batch using a blend of indigenous and selected yeasts. The wine is finally blended after aging to harmonize the characteristics of the various clones and reflect the expression of the terroir. On the nose, the wine reveals a broad and fragrant aromatic profile with initial notes of red and dark fruits (raspberry, pomegranate, blackberry, cherry, and plum) alternating with hints of underbrush, tobacco, and sweet spices. On the palate, it is balanced and harmonious, juicy and smooth with fine, well-integrated tannins and a refreshing acidity. The finish is long and pleasant, echoing the fruity notes perceived on the nose. It pairs well with a variety of foods, but it is excellent with guinea fowl, duck, and turkey.
