Spice-driven with restrained fruit, the Rex Hill Willamette Valley Pinot Noir is an overtly complex and layered wine. Pretty, floral notes of lavender and violet join spicy aromas of black pepper, cedar, tobacco and Bergamot tea. There is a taut, lean Old World-style quality to the earthiness on the nose, and the accompanying fruit is on the darker spectrum: black cherry, currant, cassis and wild blueberry. On the palate, the chewy tannins point to the whole-cluster inclusion during fermentation, with a peppery spice element showing through. The palate is again spice-driven and complex with fresh acidity and austerity that promises bottle aging potential. The long finish lingers with hints of juicy plum.

Sleek and expressive, with vibrant cherry and pomegranate flavors that take on rose petal and spiced tea accents as this builds richness toward medium-grained tannins.

The 2021 Pinot Noir Willamette Valley opens in the glass with an alluring bouquet: steeped plums, sage and ashen stones. This juicy, soothing effort has a core of brisk acidity enlivening its wild berry fruits. Sweet herbs combine with savory spice through the long and refreshing finale as hints of fine tannin add youthful poise.

Plenty of fruit with strawberries, crushed raspberries, cherries and some grilled herbs. Medium-bodied with silky tannins. Round, juicy and fruity, with such a delicate touch on the palate. Smooth and well balanced with a delicious finish.
