2008 Appassionata Pinot Noir
Now legendary, 2008 was a nearly perfect vintage in Oregon. A long, cool growing season resulted in a small crop (about 20 percent below average) that benefited from long hang time — the ideal conditions for Pinot Noir. Beautiful weather during harvest allowed us to pick at optimal ripeness. This combination of conditions made it possible to produce dense, concentrated wines with excellent Old World structure and elegance.
