A very pretty expression of Willamette Valley Pinot Noir, the 2016 Adelsheim shows plenty of aromatic complexity with layered fruit and a lovely earthy character. In the mouth, the flavors unfold to reveal raspberries, spiced plums and baking spices supported by elegant tannins that linger delightfully on the long finish. Drinking at its best right now, this is perfect accompaniment to salmon, poultry and vegetarian cuisine. - Bart Hopkins, 67 Wine Buyer

Producer Notes
With its broad array of origins and clones, this 100% Pinot Noir displays aromas of cocoa, pomegranate and raspberry on the nose and the palate as well as a light touch of nutmeg, cinnamon and allspice. True to Adelsheim's house style, it is elegantly textured with seamlessly integrated, silky, polished tannins.
Critics Notes
"This is very intense with a linear line of tannins and acidity running through the center palate. Medium to full body and a dried-strawberry and apple character. Flavorful and energetic aftertaste. Drink now or hold."
James Suckling - 93 points
"Delicate and pretty, with rose petal and raspberry accents that glide along the sleek finish. Drink now through 2023."
