2007 Benton Lane Pinot Noir Willamette Valley Oregon USA















2007 Benton Lane Pinot Noir Willamette Valley Oregon USA

Suggested retail price $25 - $28
Distributed in NYC by Southern Wine & Spirits

2007 Benton Lane Pinot Noir is another great value Pinot from Willamette, Oregon. It offers lovely scent of purple flowers, spice and bright red ripe cherry fruit on the nose. The palette is balance, harmonious and pack of red berry fruit. Despite its slight under ripeness due to the vintage, the wine has great acidity and depth, and feel somewhat Burgundian in style, although not in taste. I like it for what it is and for the price, but I need to admit my favorite Pinot from Oregon (so far, in this price range) is still the unbeatable "O'Reilly's Pinot Noir".

Drink it with roasted poultry, chicken on sauce or a grilled fat fish like Salmon.

Enjoy!
