Apolloni 2007 Olivia Vineyard Pinot Noir (Willamette Valley)

Country: US / Olivia Vineyard
Variety: Pinot Noir Oregon
Winery: Apolloni / Willamette Valley

A hard, tannic wine, this shows concentrated raspberry fruit flavors, but does not have the fullness and texture of this winery’s 2006 releases. Perhaps it’s the vintage character, or maybe the wines were somehow stripped during vinification. Give it lots of aeration.
