title: River's Edge 2012 Black Oak Vineyard Pinot Noir (Elkton Oregon)
description: Sourced from vines planted in 1972, this saw 50% new French oak. Despite the high alcohol and generous oak, the wine is neither overblown, nor tasting heavily of barrel. Strawberries, white pepper, a dash of minerality and a streak of vanilla all wrap together in a complex wine with a generous finish.
variety: Pinot Noir
designation: Black Oak Vineyard
