Note di degustazione
The 2021 Pinot Noir Old Eight Cut comes from appellations across the Willamette Valley, including Eola-Amity Hills, Ribbon Ridge and Dundee Hills. It's scented of red cherries, cranberries and bergamot with nuances of aniseed and mushroom. The medium-bodied palate is soft and refreshing, combining structural elegance with generous, floral fruit, and it has a long, nuanced finish.

A blend of their sites, the 2021 Pinot Noir Old Eight Cut pours a saturated but transparent red and sports an attractive mix of a spicy and floral profile, with ripe wild raspberry, a hint of blue fruit, roses, and fresh forest herbs. Medium-bodied and juicy, with a beautiful balance of elegance and immediate appeal, it has fine tannins and a great, clean finish. Another outstanding entry to the style of Hundred Suns, it’s drinking fantastically now but will also hold up nicely over the next 5-6 years.
Fruit sourced from Carson Phillips Vineyard in Dundee Hills, Sequitur Vineyard in Ribbon Ridge, Bednarik Vineyard in Tualatin Hills, Case Vineyard in Chehalem Mountains and Big Cheese Vineyard in Eola-Amity Hills. 30% whole cluster inclusion. Indigenous-yeast ferment. Pale purple. Young, sharp, bright and vibrant. Violets, a bit grapey, very light cinnamon spice, crackly browned leaves. Concentrated fruit with staying power. This wine tastes like I imagine purple would taste. Firm acidity and firm mouth-coating tannin. Earthy but with very bright purple fruit and long acidity. (SCJ)
