Created by tasting each individual barrel and wanting to showcase the best of Eola-Amity Hills, the 2022 Mt Jefferson Cuvee Pinot Noir was aged for 10 months in 22% new French oak barrels. 52% whole cluster is used during fermentation, which gives it some added structure and tannins. Sporting a glimmering light to medium core with a light pink rim, this stunning Pinot Noir pops with notes of black cherries, red plum, anise, grated orange peel, sweet baking spice, and dried rose petals. Balanced texture across the palate, but the wine is very young, so give it 1-2 years in the bottle before enjoying.
