Walter Scott Cuvee Ruth Pinot Noir, Eola-Amity Hills, Oregon 2023

The Walter Scott Wines Cuvée Ruth Pinot Noir 2023 is a well-regarded expression of Pinot Noir from Oregon’s Eola-Amity Hills in the Willamette Valley. As the winery’s barrel selection Reserve label for Pinot Noir, it is crafted from a blend of multiple clones and grapes from prominent local vineyards. This wine is described as rich red and dark fruit combined with salty earth, minerals, and citrus peel with terrific acidity and smooth mouthfeel. Think ripe red cherry, mulberry, red currant, ripe black cherries, ,boysenberries, and dark plums with lifted notes of violet, cinnamon, and minerality. Pairs well with grilled salmon, poultry, or mushroom dishes.
