Belle Vallée Pinot Noir - 2007 Willamette Valley, Oregon


Belle Vallée Pinot Noir - 2007 Willamette Valley, Oregon

Price U$ 25


Light ruby colour, oaky in flavour.
This is the perfect pinot to partner with a light meal, low in alcohol content with hints of black cherry and plum.
Good to open one and save another for a couple more years.

You can pick it up at Astor Wines in NY:

Benton Lane- Pinot Noir 2007- Willamette Valley Oregon



Benton Lane Pinot Noir 2007- Willamette Valley Oregon

Price USD 25



It can sometimes be hard to get a quality bargain pinot noir, this Benton Lane is a great example of a great rich pinot noir without the hefty price tag.

The wine has a very clear ruby colour and shows hints of strawberry and chocolate. It also is light on the alcohol content and is crisp on the palate and very smooth on the finish, everything one wants out of a good pinot noir.
