Lavinea 'Tualatin Estate' Pinot Noir 2015 Review
From a classic Willamette Valley vineyard site, this Pinot Noir is soft and lovely on the nose, with pillow-like notes of red cherries, blueberries, violets, and vanilla. On the contrast, the palate packs a punch, with upfront, high-toned spice that fades into a complete finish.
