Belle Pente Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
Silky Willamette Valley Pinot with red cherry, warm spice, and the quiet grace of Burgundy.
Belle Pente is a small, family-owned estate winery in the Yamhill-Carlton District of Oregon's Willamette Valley, producing estate and Willamette Valley Pinot Noir with a distinctly Burgundian sensibility. The estate vines are planted on the gentle slopes of the Carlton farmlands, where the ancient Willakenzie soils, fine-grained marine sedimentary formations from millions of years ago, give the wines their characteristic elegance and mineral backbone.
The Willamette Valley bottling draws from the estate and partner vineyards across the valley, producing a wine that reflects the best of the region's range: bright red cherry, wild strawberry, and a thread of earthy spice on the nose, with a silky, medium-bodied palate of delicate red fruit, warm cinnamon, and a clean, lingering finish. It is textbook Willamette, subtle, Burgundian in structure, and at its best with food.
An ideal choice for duck, salmon, mushroom dishes, or a quiet dinner with good company.
For the moments that deserve a thoughtful pour. Belle Pente is Oregon at its Sunday best.
