Alcohol: 13.5%
Grape(s): Pinot Noir
Localization: Dundee Hills, Willamette Valley, Oregon
Tasting Notes: The bouquet is layered, with a fruity core of raspberry, cranberry, and red currants surrounded by oak and earthen spice. Silky tannins and fresh fruit jam nudge the palate, giving way to hints of warm baking spices. A model Willamette Valley wine, the Vireton Pinot Noir is juicy, fruit-forward, and wonderfully balanced.
93 points Wine Enthusiast: This wine is so good and so pretty it has to be one of the vintage's best bangs for the buck. Blueberries and beeswax join with crushed rose petals to create an enticing perfume. The wine's fresh mouthfeel go hand-in-hand with zippy acidity and tart raspberry and black-tea flavors.
The Domain: In 1993, Archery Summit set its sights on creating wines of real purpose in the Willamette Valley.
