The 2014 Lenné cinq élus Pinot Noir represents the second vintage of this concentrated wine. A blend of the best barrels from 5 separate clones. Decanted Pronounced aromas show a complex mix of muddled black cherries, wild berry, double mocha, pepper, bramble, cola, vanilla, toast, delicate florals and fresh turned loam. The palate shows density and concentration. Upfront fruit flavors of red berries, cherries and wild blackberry followed by notes of delicate flowers, white pepper, spice, French pressed coffee, cocoa powder, earth, dark cola, vanilla and lighter notes of toast and wood. Supple and silky. Lingers moderately on the finish.
This should age well.

This is a blend of the best barrel of each clone grown on the estate. Concentrated plum tones with a nice sweetness--classic Oregon flavors.
