The 2022 Pinot Noir Classique is distinctly savory, with a burst of white pepper, roses and lavender giving way to wild strawberries. Textures of pure silk are displayed as clove-infused wild berry fruits cascade throughout. This tapers off perfumed and spiced with a residual bump of acidity, maintaining a lovely freshness. ...

Spicy, fruit-forward nose with undertones of licorice and dried herbs. Medium-bodied with crisp acidity and a juicy aftertaste. It’s fresh and seductive. Drink now. Screw cap.

Aromatically, this is a bowl of mixed fruit that includes strawberry, blueberry and watermelon. Hiding behind the fruit are aromas of balsa wood and loamy soil. Flavors like blackberry, lemongrass and cedar fill the mouth. The acidity is bright, but the tannins are still grippy. Enjoy with a banh mi sandwich.

The bright ruby 2022 Pinot Noir Classique jumps out of the glass with loads of spice and notes of bright red cherry, forest herbs, and beet root. Medium-bodied, with energetic freshness on the palate balanced with ripe mixed berry fruit, stemmy spices, and a floral flourish on the finish, this charming and attractive red will be prime for drinking over the next few years.
Winery
Our Pinot Noir Classique is an assemblage of all our North Willamette Valley vineyard sites and is a fine example of expert blending by out winemaking team, embodying our true "Classique" style and spirit. Aged in 15% new French oak, grapes designated for this blend were hand-harvested and fermented separately by vineyard and block, allowing the Lange's to create this precise and tightly-focused signature wine that consistently over-delivers for the price.

Varietal: Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir translates as 'black pine' in French, and is named as such due to the extremely inky color of the fruits, which hang in bunches the shape of a pine cone. Wineries often struggle with Pinot Noir vines, as more than most red wine grape varietals, they fail in hot temperatures and are rather susceptible to various diseases which can be disastrous when hoping for a late harvest. Thanks to new technologies and methods for avoiding such problems, however, the Pinot Noir grape varietal has spread across the world to almost every major wine producing country. Why? Quite simply because this is considered to be one of the finest grape varietals one can cultivate, due to the fact that it can be used to produce a wide range of excellent wines full of interesting, fresh and fascinating flavors Their thin skins result in a fairly light-bodied wine, and the juices carry beautiful notes of summer fruits, currants and berries, and many, many more.

Region: Oregon

The Oregon wine industry is continuing to go from strength to strength, with many of their Pinot Gris and Pinot Noir wines winning important international awards in recent years. Oregon has also become renowned as an important region for the production of organic and biodynamic wines, demonstrating the fact that the wineries which are dotted across the diverse regions of the state are keen to experiment with their methods and techniques. A wide range of grape varietals flourish in Oregon, including an impressive array of Old World classic grapes alongside American hybrid varietals. This, coupled with the cooler climate and the mix of traditional and excitingly modern wine production methods makes Oregon a fascinating region for wine lovers, particularly those looking for something unique and utterly delicious.

Country: United States

Whilst there are several strains of native grape varietals in the United States, it was the introduction of the European species which prompted the country to begin producing wines on a large scale. Over the past few centuries, experimentation and cross-breeding has produced great successes in regards to the quality and suitability of the fruit grown in states such as California, Oregon, Washington and New York, and the past few decades have seen New World wines from the United States reach much higher standards. Arguably the finest United States wines have always come out of California, where the climate and terrroir is most suitable for fine wine production. The masterful blending of classic grape varietals such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, amongst others including Syrah and Chardonnay, have had world beating results in recent years, prompting many to suggest that there has never been a better time for buying and drinking United States wines.

Whilst Pinot Noir is by far the most common grape grown in Willamette Valley, wineries of this region have a reputation for innovation and experimentation within viticultural circles, and are ever expanding their portfolios and experimenting with new varietals.
