Walter Scott 'La Combe Verte' Pinot Noir Willamette Valley, 2023

The 2023 La Combe Verte reveals a beautifully layered nose, offering wild berries, earthy mushroom, and forest floor aromas, complemented by subtle hints of savory baking spices. On the palate, the wine strikes a balance between strength and grace, showcasing the elegance of Eola-Amity's volcanic soils, while the powerful marine sedimentary influences from Sequitur and Freedom Hill Vineyards lend depth and structure. The wine embodies both finesse and power, creating a complex and harmonious profile that speaks to its distinct terroirs. With 1,480 cases made, this wine is a remarkable expression of its origins, blending boldness with refinement. Pair with duck confit over lentils or a poached salmon with cucumber dill relish.
