Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Medium bodied with notes of blackberry, cherry, pine spice and cinnamon. Balanced tannins and medium acidity are complemented by a silky finish. A signature & our most affordable wine, the 2016 Hawks View Pinot Noir is a true representation of the vineyard site in which it is grown. Oregon in a glass!
Vineyard Notes
Planted in 1991, the 50-acre Hawks View Vineyard offers the ideal growing conditions for Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris. The eastern-facing slope and Laurelwood soils, combined with dry farming and hand harvesting, allow for wines of great character and distinction.
Winemaker Notes
Before we even brought fruit into the winery, we could tell that this vintage of Pinot Noir from our Estate vineyard was going to have amazing color. The growing season started off with a bang due to an uncharacteristically warm summer that led to a rather compact harvest. For this vintage, we chose to seal the bottle with a screw cap in order to preserve the freshness, intensity and fruit-forward tone of this wine.
