Siduri Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

$21.99 -- Top Value of Any Vintage!

Purchase Siduri Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

OPNC regulars will recognize this wine as one of the top values of any vintage. The wine is made by Adam Lee of Siduri and Novy, both top-shelf, culty-level California wineries. Adam buys Oregon fruit from great vineyards and finishes the wine down there. The results are always superb.

In this case, he is offering up a pinot packed with sweet red fruits, a round and supple texture, and highlights of pretty barrel toast, minerals and more. This is a polished wine with a high-class feel and flavor, and at just $21 per bottle, is a loss-leader for the winery. Their loss is our gain.
