Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Boasting aromas of yellow orchard fruits, ripe Meyer lemon and citrus blossom lift from the glass. On the palate the theme stays true with added lemon curd and fresh crushed gravel further enhancing this wine’s intrigue. No new oak allows the La Belle Promenade Vineyard site to truly show off. Impressive tension pulls your attention to the wine’s generous texture leading into length and elegance on the finish.
Ratings
94 Points "Warming nose of spiced apples, oyster shells, toasted sourdough and burnt oranges. Medium-bodied with fresh acidity. Polished, round and lively with a flavorful finish. Drink or hold." - James Suckling
Vineyard Notes
100% La Belle Promenade Vineyard | Chehalem Mountains AVA | 700 - 800’ Elevation | Northeastern & Southwestern Exposure | Volcanic Soils, Jory & Nekia | Planted to Mixed Pinot Noir Clones | La Belle Promenade Vineyard is planted to 36 acres of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Pinot Meunier, Grüner Veltliner and Aligoté. It sits on top of volcanic soils, with the western portion of the site consisting of a thick layer of fractured basalt. Due in part to its high elevation, this site allows for great diversity in concert with our other estate vineyard, Flanerie.
