Willamette Pinot Noir, Swick 2022 (Oregon, United States)

 Grapes are hand-harvested and whole bunches ferment semi-carbonically in 500-liter barrels with indigenous yeast and pigeage one to two times a day. The wine goes into 500-liter 5-year-old barrels for about 10 months of elevage. The wine is bottled without fining or filtration and has a small addition of sulfur.

Personality: a classic Oregon nose with a mix of black cherry, damp earth and mushrooms. Medium bodied and fresh, an intense, fruit-forward, Pinot Noir lover’s dream.
