2014 King Estate Backbone Pinot Noir Willamette

Each vintage, the winemakers have the ability to ferment and age individual blocks and vineyards separately until they are blended. Each vineyard contributes unique nuances and character to this blend, making this wine more than just the sum of its parts. The exceptional fruit coming from these storied vineyards provides the backbone for the King Estate Willamette Valley wines.

This velvety, ruby red Pinot Noir showcases rich notes of black cherry, rhubarb, tobacco leaf, and cinnamon on the nose. This wine’s opulence is further highlighted by flavors of dark chocolate, plum, cherry, and sweet French oak. The lavish finish of this Pinot Noir stands out with sumptuous fruit, earth, and tannic components that provide a long, lingering finish.
