2023 WALT Shea Vineyard Pinot Noir
Critic Review
"Pale to medium ruby-purple in color, the 2023 Shea Vineyard Pinot Noir bursts with bold notes of strawberry preserves, pomegranate, and red roses, plus suggestions of forest floor and mossy tree bark. The medium to full-bodied palate is soft and juicy with just enough freshness and a savory finish."

"...pretty red roes petals that mingle well with orange peel, bergamot and suggestions of damp soils. Light cola and black raspberry notes mingle well on the palate, with beautiful finesse. Drinking well now, watch this evolve now and over the next fifteen years..."
93 Points | Vinous, Billy Norris
"...a supple, finessed, nuanced Pinot with a gorgeous floral perfume atop a citrusy base layer of spiced blood orange and tangerine. Elegant and persistent, the Shea rides a velvety wave of gentle acidity and super-fine tannins through the long finish. Very pretty."

Light ruby in color, this wine is layered with expressive strawberry, raspberry, and ruby grapefruit flavors. Subtle hints of sous bois and rose petal accent the fruit profile. The palate is supple and multilayered, with a bright and structured finish set to evolve beautifully over time.

Sous Bois
We are very fortunate to be able to source fruit from Dick and Deirdre Shea - pioneers of grape growing in Willamette Valley, Oregon. Shea Vineyard's sedimentary soils and unique aspect produce wines of excellent concentration and depth in one of the Pacific Coast's most premier, and extreme, growing regions.
