2022 White Walnut Estate - Pinot Noir Dundee Hills Worden Hill Road (750ml)
Price: $69.99
White Walnut Estate is a certified organic and biodynamic winery in the Dundee Hills of Oregon. They produce Pinot Noir and Chardonnay wines from their estate vineyards. The winery was founded in 2007 by winemaker Chris Mazepink, who previously worked at Archery Summit, Shea Wine Cellars, and Benton Lane. The property that Chris Mazepink is farming for this Worden Hill Road vineyard is a secret he's loathe to divulge before the final deal is sealed--a much rockier vineyard than his other holdings that he's quite excited about. The winemaking for this bottling uses nearly entirely destemmed fruit that ages in a wide variety of vessels (concrete for freshness and immediacy, terracotta for aromatic detail, and wood for texture and complexity). Only a tiny portion of the oak is new, and the wine is bottled unfined and unfiltered. These are some of the most exciting domestic Pinot Noirs we’ve tasted in the past couple of years!
