Fresh red berries on the nose and medium in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate and fruit forward.
Showing raspberries, fresh cherries, light spices and herbs.
Fine grained tannins on the finish with tangy raspberries.
My first Pinot Meunier as a single varietal. A nice surprise.
This Single Vineyard Pinot Meunier from Eola-Amity Hills, is drinking very nicely now. Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel. Soft and smooth, with mild complexity.
Easy drinking and good right out of the bottle. A good party wine and good for the pool too.
100% Pinot Meunier grapes. A tiny production of only 1,200 bottles.
13.5% alcohol by volume.
89 points.
$55.

Oregon PM is under appreciated in my book. When I do tastings for friends who aren’t deep into wine I often include both a PM based champagne and a red PM, to highlight how dynamic varietals can be. It’s always fun to quiz them at the end on which two wines were from the same grape.

Love Argyle.

I love Schwarzriesling (same grape, different name) from Germany. Have to try this!

Didn’t even realize Argyle produced a varietal Meunier wine – will have to be on the lookout!
