2015 Union Wine Co. Alchemist Pinot Noir Willamette Valley
2015 Union Wine Co. Alchemist Pinot Noir Willamette Valley
There's a science, but also a bit of magic that goes into blending our Alchemist wines. To make this carefully crafted Pinot Noir, we source our fruit from our favorite parts of our partners' vineyards, drawing and blending from the beautiful palette of the Willamette Valley to create a refined and intensely vibrant wine, rich with red berry fruits. This is a wine for elevating everyday moments to the realm of art. Tasting Notes: Raspberry, dark cherry, and baking spice.
This is attractive, with wild strawberries, cocoa-dusted cherries, walnuts and nutmeg. Juicy and pristine on the palate, with medium body, crunchy acidity and sleek cherries and raspberries in the middle. Its both delicate and firm, with a flavorful blue-fruit finish. Drink or hold.

Critic tasting note: (2015 vintage) "Round and fruity, this mixes sweet berry with red plum and
Bing cherry. Orange-peel highlights lift the midpalate. The wine shows excellent balance and a detailed, lingering finish." - 90/100, Wine Enthusiast
