Dom. Drouhin Oregon Laurene Pinot Noir 2004
Pinot Noir
from Willamette Valley, Oregon
winemaker's notes:
The 2004 Laurène is vibrantly seductive with aromas of fresh cherry & red berry, and a floral mix of cherry blossoms and rose petals. These sensations follow through on the palate, with added clove and spice character. Firm, layered tannins coat the mouth, but the real stars are the rich, velvety touch and well rounded, perrsistent finish.
As the Laurène opens up, hints of blue fruit, cola & fresh undergrowth emerge. Similar to 2001 and '93 in finesse and sophistication, the '04 Laurène is full of life and promised much in the years to come. Enjoy now, and anytime over the next 8-12 years.
