Pinot Noir 2008
The Willamette Valleys soil and weather conditions have made it world renown. The St. Josef’s Pinot Noir is a classic Burgundian style Pinot. Beautiful garnet color with overtones of blackberry, pepper and spice. It remains true to the French tradition by not being too fruit forward, instead the flavor profiles of tobacco and oak balance the wine. Grown from St. Josef’s three estate vineyards, aged in both French and European Oak. |
