Hyland Estates Petit Pinot Noir '23 on prem only

From 45-year-old vines in Oregon's McMinnville AVA, this "little" Pinot Noir presents a vibrant ruby core. The nose bursts with youthful energy - freshly crushed raspberries, orange zest, and damp rose petals leap from the glass with subtle earthy undertones. The palate delivers immediate pleasure with juicy flavors of wild strawberry, rhubarb, and white pepper framed by supple tannins that earned 90-92 point scores. Aged 9 months in neutral oak, this 13.2% alcohol Pinot from the warm 2023 vintage shows surprising freshness (6.2 g/L TA) and approachability. Perfect for roasted salmon or mushroom risotto - the "Petit" designation belies serious winemaking from one of Willamette Valley's oldest estates.
