Illahe Vineyards Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2023 Review
This is a great entry into the world of Illahe Vineyards. This wine is delicious and it only gets better from here. It has lean cherry and cola notes with a whiff of pepper. The palate is youthful and balanced with a tart juicy mouthfeel balanced by quiet edgy tannins and bright acidity.
