The 2017 Fattve Pinot Noir Willamette Valley offers enticing aromas of fresh strawberries, black cherries, and raspberries with a hint of baking spices. Flavors mirror aromas with notes of fresh fruit, floral, and mineral. The mouthfeel is round and soft with flavors of strawberries, cherries, and cocoa. The wine finishes with a touch of sweet toasted oak. The wine’s bright acidity gives it an excellent balance between sweet fruit and oak, and the tannins are well-integrated with a touch of caramel and sweet spices. The mouth feel is medium-bodied with good structure. The overall impression is rich and supple, with silky, round tannins on the finish. The wine will cellar well for up to 5 years.
