Evening Land Pinot Noir La Source 2014
The La Source 2014 is a best barrel reserve for Evening Land, and has a gorgeous bouquet loaded with dried cherry, raspberry, and a delightful mineral character. The mouthfeel is rich and ethereal, delivering well-delineated layers of red berries, cherry, spice that culminate in a spectacular finish. Ready to enjoy right now, it will continue to evolve for another 4-5 years and drink well for a decade.
Evening Land Vineyards Winery
“We are, first and foremost, faithful stewards of the historic Seven Springs vineyard, planted by Oregon wine pioneer Al MacDonald in 1984. On this dramatic east-facing slope, in the iron-rich and rocky, volcanic soils of the Eola-Amity Hills, Al MacDonald undertook what would become one of Oregon’s most recognized vineyards. Nestled against a forest of Douglas fir with views eastward to Mt. Hood and Mt. Jefferson, it is immediately evident to any visitor why Al chose this site.” – Rajat Parr, Sashi Moorman, & Ben DiCristina – Evening Land Vineyards
