Beaux Freres The Upper Terrace Pinot Noir 2017
Related Collection
Origin
Country: USA
Region and Appellation: Oregon Willamette Valley
Product Description
From Oregon's iconic Beaux Frères estate, this single-vineyard Pinot Noir showcases the exceptional terroir of Ribbon Ridge AVA. Sourced from the Upper Terrace Vineyard (planted 2000 with Dijon clones), this 2017 vintage reflects the winery's transition to biodynamic farming and its new partnership with Artemis Domaines (owners of Château Latour).
Tasting Profile
A translucent ruby-garnet hue introduces complex aromas of wild strawberry, Bing cherry, and forest floor, with subtle vanilla, clove, and game nuances. The medium-bodied palate delivers vibrant flavors of red currant and cola, framed by satin tannins and fresh acidity (pH 3.5). The finish is long and mineral-driven, with Burgundian elegance. A benchmark Oregon Pinot Noir that marries New World fruit with Old World finesse.
