Pinot Noir carries less tannin and less color than most serious reds, and relies on texture and aroma instead. Red cherry and raspberry over an earthy, savory base, with light color that belies its complexity. Oregon's Willamette Valley sits at roughly the same latitude as Burgundy and makes Pinot Noir with a similar sensibility. Bottled under the Ken Wright Cellars label. Cellar temperature, in a wide glass. Pairs with poultry, pork, and earthy dishes.
