2017 Lumos Pumphouse Temperance Hill Vineyard Eola-Amity Hills Willamette Valley Pinot Noir

13.5% alc., 84 cases, $48. Clones 113, 114 and 115.1/3 whole cluster fermentation (layer cake method with whole clusters in center), native yeast fermentation, primarily pump-overs with minimal punch-downs, aged 15 months in French oak barrels. · Moderate garnet color in the glass. Reserved aromas of cherry, dark red berry, spice and floral perfume pick up intensity with time in the glass. Dense yet energetically fruited in a mid-weight plus style, with impressive fresh-off-the-vine expression of black grape, black berry and black currant flavors. Silky in the mouth with modest tannins and a finish awash in umami and fruit. Score: 94. Reviewed October 4, 2020
