The intricate aromatic layers of the 2021 REX HILL Chehalem Mountains Pinot Noir reveal baked Marionberry, dried tea leaves, and fresh red currant as the foundation for ascending tiers of ripe fig, black plum, delicate violet, and blooming oregano, and thyme. Vanilla, blueberry, and dried cedar plank embellish the palate with spirited acidity contributing lift. Firm tannins suggest fermentation with the grape stems, provide a counterweight to the primary fruit and herbal notes, and allude to its potential for additional bottle age. The REX HILL Chehalem Mountains Cuvee Pinot Noir is a staunch addition to your dinner table.
