Best Buy! South Seattle Community College product Sarah Cabot has been making wine in the Willamette Valley since 2008, and she shepherded this consumer-friendly Pinot Noir for Precept Wine after taking over its Oregon operations a couple of years ago. The nose is reminiscent of rhubarb pie, dried strawberry, blood orange and lime peel with hints of light oak. There’s no sign of oak on the tasty palate, which screams of strawberry rhubarb compote, raspberry and Rainier cherry. Technically, this is outside the Best Buy! range of $15 and less, but an exception can be made for Oregon Pinot Noir at this price.
Rating: Excellent
Production: 3,500 cases
Alcohol: 12.5%
Where can I purchase this wind. “Windy Bay”
Greetings, Nancy.
Your best bet would be to call the folks at Precept Wine in Seattle — (206) 267-5252 — tell them the city you live in and ask for a retail location.
Sincerely,
Eric
