Amalie Robert 2014 Pinot Meunier (Willamette Valley)

Country: US /
Variety: Pinot Meunier Oregon
Winery: Amalie Robert / Willamette Valley

This is a chunkier, somewhat rustic cousin to Pinot Noir, often used to bulk up a sparkling wine. Here, on its own, it’s generously loaded with pomegranate, earth and green tea flavors. The aromatics capture some of the rose petal bouquet of its more delicate relation.
