Red currants, huckleberries and wild blueberries are accented by green tea and soft sandalwood. The juicy mid-palate is framed with rich, supple tannin, culminating in a long-lasting finish.
Lively blackberry, plum, black tea, leather and earthy notes. Medium / full bodied Pinot Noir with a dark cherry and savory herbal note on the palate. A velvety texture, spicy tannins and a persistent minerality to finish.

Crushed stone, black cherry, and plum fruit scents. A nice combination of black bery, raspberry, and toasty oak follows through to a medium body.
Deep ruby, almost purple in color.
A dusty core of dark fruit exhibiting black currant, smoked meat, roasted herbs, and wet river rock aromas. Medium to full-bodied palate with subtle spice and structured tannins.
The 2021 Latitude 45 wine has a savory characteristic with delicate dark fruit, clove, and resin aromas. Indian spices, black currant, black cherries, and forest floor dominate the palate with a richness and tension toward fine-grained tannins, favoring a sweet fruity texture and flinty finish.

Aromas of cherry-cola, pipe-tobacco, earth, soy and black tea. The palate displays darker fruits of blackberries and cherries, with ample acidity and ripe tannin, resulting in a lengthy finish.

Spicy black cherry, black tea, cocoa nibs, earth and balsawood delving into a palate of blue-berry and currant. A medium bodied wine with subtle but ever-present flinty texture.
This whole cluster carbonic Pinot Noir starts fruit forward with cherry scented whole cluster spice (cardamom), a light touch of anise, espresso bean and a hint of Aperol leading into a vibrant palate that is lush with dark plum and finishes with smooth slightly chalky tannin. Serve with a slight chill for a great summer red!
Sourced from the high elevation Page vineyard in the Eola Amity Hills this Pinot Noir displays balance and elegance.
