2021 Rocheux Pinot Noir

Crafted from the rocky Western slope of our estate vineyard, the 2021 Le Cadeau Rocheux Pinot Noir is a beautiful expression of the Pommard and Dijon 777 clones originally planted in 1999. The Rocheux blocks receive the heat of the sunset balanced with a crisp cool night breeze, resulting in rich mineral-driven fruit that maintains perfect acidity.

Awarded 95 points by Paul Gregutt: "A seamless and beautifully detailed palate. It's a tapestry of pastry fruits – apples and berries in particular – accented with baking spices and framed with light barrel toast. Lovely in the glass, even better in the mouth. This is what really good Willamette Valley Pinot Noirs bring to the world that sets the region apart."
