Description
Light ruby in the glass, this wine opens with a perfumed nose of raspberry coulis, ripe cherry and delicate aromas of baking spice and forest floor. This Pinot Noir is light in body with layered flavors of strawberry, tart cherry, minerality, nutmeg and white peppercorn.
Producer Description
My parents, Bob and Dolores Walt, were dedicated winegrowers who loved the land and each other. Our family produced six different varietals that we sold to several great wineries. For my parents, growing grapes was a shared family vision-a view of well cared for vines out the kitchen window, starting early in the day doing what you really love, the satisfaction of a hard day’s work, the feeling of peace walking through the vineyard before sunset.When I was away I missed our vineyard terribly and longed to be home working with my family. So, I was happy to be able to manage the vineyard operations from 1982 until 1992. My parents passed away many years ago, but they remain forever my inspiration for growing grapes and making wine. Not a day goes by that I don’t think of their love of the earth or passion for the vines.I just love these wines. At WALT we have an amazing and dedicated winemaking team, a state-of-the-art winemaking facility, a passionate winery staff, and strong relationships with extraordinary vineyard partners. What a combination!I am thankful every day for the chance to make wine. And I am thankful that my parents, Bob and Dolores, guided our family to this wonderful way of life. I invite you to explore WALT Wines as they speak the voice of the vineyard and demonstrate the talent and passion of our team.
When opening this 750ml bottle of Willamette Valley Shea Vineyard Pinot Noir, gently remove the cork. Pour it slowly into a wine glass to enjoy. It’s best served at a moderate temperature, around 16 – 18 degrees Celsius. This wine pairs well with a variety of foods. It can be a great match for roasted chicken, as the wine’s flavors can complement the chicken’s richness. It also goes nicely with mushroom dishes, enhancing the earthy flavors of the mushrooms. When storing the wine, keep it in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight. Avoid storing it in areas with large temperature fluctuations. And remember, once opened, it’s best to finish the bottle within a few days for optimal taste.
