Hailing from the heart of Oregon’s Dundee Hills, the 2018 Rose & Arrow Pinot Noir Estate The Black Walnut Worden Hill is a revelation. This 95-point stunner is a testament to the vineyard’s meticulous care and the unique terroir it thrives in. The wine unfolds with layers of ripe black cherries, wild forest berries, complemented by alluring notes of earthy truffle and a whisper of smoky spice. Its velvet-like texture and finely balanced tannins make it a pleasure to sip, revealing its complex character with each taste. Ideal for a cozy dinner party, this Pinot Noir pairs beautifully with roasted duck or mushroom risotto, elevating the meal to a new level of indulgence. Despite rubbing shoulders with wines twice its price, it delivers well beyond its peers, making it a truly great value find.
