Lingua Franca Estate Pinot Noir 2022 Review
Lingua Franca's estate Pinot Noir comes from the winery's top vineyard sites in the Eola-Amity Hills region of the Willamette Valley. This is a powerful expression with Pinot Noir with deep black and blue fruit notes framed by grippy tannins and racy acidity. The wine is aged in a combination of 25 percent new and 75 percent old French oak barriques for 12 months, introducing some elegant notes of vanilla and baking spices to the wine.
