Van Duzer Vineyards 2013 Pinot Noir, Willamette Valley, $32
By Great Northwest Wine on May 31, 2016
Van Duzer Vineyards near Dallas, Ore., drew on several Willamette Valley sources for its 2013 Pinot Noir, crafting a wine that startles the taster with licorice elements in its opening aromas, backed by cherries and spice. On the tongue, there are more cherries and licorice, plus a hint of blueberry, leading to well managed tannins in its close. This earned a double gold medal at the 2016 Cascadia Wine Competition.
Rating: Outstanding!
Production: 6,109 cases
Alcohol: 13.5%
