Hyland Estates 2023 Petite Estate Pinot Noir

Tasting Notes

Sourced from younger vine blocks across the historic Hyland Vineyard, this Pinot Noir reflects the cool-climate elegance of the Willamette Valley. It pours a ruby red hue and opens with aromas of orange zest, red cherry, raspberry, black currant, and rose petal. On the palate, it delivers exuberant notes of black cherry, red plum, and creamy vanilla, supported by refined tannins and bright acidity. The wine was hand-harvested, 100% destemmed, and fermented in small stainless vessels using a mix of native and cultured yeasts. Gentle pump-overs and 18–20 days on skins allowed for slow, deliberate extraction, followed by aging for 8 to 9 months in a combination of French oak barrels and stainless steel. Its balance of fruit and structure makes it a versatile companion to herb-roasted poultry, grilled salmon, wild mushroom dishes, or Brie and Camembert cheeses.
