2008 Jigsaw Oregon Pinot Noir $15

This Pinot Noir is sourced from multiple vineyards all over Oregon. The grapes from each vineyard are aged separately for 10 months in French oak barrels. Then the individual barrels of single vineyard Pinot Noir are blended together, hence the Jigsaw name.

The color is a see-thru dusky red. The nose is tart red fruit, minerals and dust. The taste is sweet at first, strawberries, blackberries,  then a hit  of acidity. The overall impression is of a clean, crisp, dry wine. The finish is tasty and lingers.

A solid Pinot Noir, good fruit, nice structure, would pair well with all but the heaviest of food.
