Penner-Ash 2014 Aegrina Vineyard Pinot Noir (McMinnville)

Country: US / Aegrina Vineyard
Variety: Pinot Noir Oregon
Winery: Penner-Ash / McMinnville

From grapes grown at some of the Willamette Valley’s highest elevations, this is a pungent mix of citrus oil, grapefruit, metal shavings and stone. The flavors persist along that path, crafting a sleek and distinctive wine that in many ways is the antithesis of the fleshy, jammy, fruit-forward style of many domestic Pinots.
