Benton Lane Pinot Noir 2021/22 750ml

James Suckling – 91 points (2021)

This dark crimson hued wine has aromas of black cherry, cassis and red licorice.  The texture is quite plush and velvety with integrated tannin, so it will pair with a variety of cuisines.  The flavors are classic Oregon pinot noir cherry and berry nuances, with notes of cured meats and baking spices layered in.
