Walter Scott 'Cuvée Ruth' Pinot Noir Willamette Valley, 2023

This wine opens with captivating aromas of wild lavender and alpine herbs, bringing a fragrant and herbaceous complexity, while vibrant notes of raspberry and cranberry add a burst of bright fruit. On the palate, it is refreshingly lively, with savory chicory root and a crisp minerality that frames the wild red and blue berry fruits, creating an intriguing balance of flavors. A hint of fresh mint lifts the finish, adding a touch of coolness and elegance to the experience. With only 825 cases made, this ultra-fine wine offers a refined and nuanced expression of its unique terroir. Pair with a grilled hamburger on a homemade English Muffin with béchamel and handcut French Fries.
