Benton-Lane Pinot Noir Willamette Valley 2023

The nose reveals vibrant red fruit and hints of unripe blueberries, complemented by savory herbs such as thyme and sage. Subtle spices and a touch of delicate violets add complexity, alongside a nuanced minerality. The mid-palate is lush and well-balanced, supported by refined, firm tannins and a rich, textural intensity. The wine demonstrates exceptional cohesion, with tension and freshness, culminating in a bright, lingering finish.
