2010 Scott Paul Les Gourmandises Dundee Hills Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
13.1% alc., 93 cases, $40.
Sourced from special 20-year-old blocks at Nysa Vineyard. “Les Gourmandises” is a French term for
“Delicacies.” Natural fermentations, aged 10 months in 25% new French oak. Unfined and unfiltered.
·
Moderately light reddish color in the glass. Scents of dark red berry jam, fresh cherries, dried herbs and oak.
Light and silky with a delicate array of red fruits backed by gossamer tannins. High voltage acidity with a citrus
peel infused finish. Somewhat herbal in character probably due to under ripeness. Better the following day
from a previously opened and re-corked bottle showing more expressive red cherry fruit but still sporting zingy
acidity. Good.
