2024 Granville "Basalt" Pinot Noir

Granville Wine Co. takes a hands-on, thoughtful approach from vineyard to bottle, allowing each site and growing season to guide the finished wine. Their winemaking philosophy emphasizes balance, freshness, and purity of fruit, with careful attention to preserving the natural character of the vineyards. By bringing together fruit from different elevations, exposures, and growing conditions, they create wines with added depth and complexity while maintaining a sense of elegance and restraint. The result is a Pinot Noir that captures the distinctive character of the Willamette Valley and the nuances of its volcanic soils.

"Starts out savory and earthy with notes of new leather and tobacco leaf, then reveals a delightful abundance of strawberry, raspberry and wild mountain blueberry aromas and flavors. A compelling medium-bodied wine that changes every time you go back to the glass. Juicy acidity and very fine tannins reminiscent of cherry skin and hibiscus tea. Elegant and profoundly drinkable. Drink or hold."
-James Suckling, 96 Points
