NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This King Estate Backbone Pinot Noir offers a complex nose of ripe cherry, cranberry, and raspberry aromas intertwined with dried herbs, earthy mushrooms, and a hint of smoky oak.On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, with a core of juicy red and dark berry flavors. There are notes of baking spices and sweet tobacco, with a long and lingering finish. This is a well-balanced and elegant Pinot Noir with great depth and structure.

ORIGINS

Winery: King Estate

Region: Oregon

Oregon is a state in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, located between Washington to the north and California to the south. It is known for its diverse landscape of forests, mountains, rivers, and high desert, and for its vibrant wine industry. Oregon's wine industry dates back to the mid-1800s, when the first vineyards were planted in the Willamette Valley. The region was largely forgotten until the 1960s, when a group of pioneering winemakers began to experiment with Pinot Noir and other cool-climate varieties. Since then, Oregon has become one of the most important wine regions in the United States, with over 500 wineries and more than 1,000 vineyards.
