Rose & Arrow Red Label Pinot Noir 2022 750ml

Product Info

Terroir
Sourced from select vineyard sites in Oregon’s Willamette Valley, this Pinot Noir reflects a cool-climate region shaped by marine influence, volcanic soils, and long growing seasons that favor slow, even ripening. The valley’s combination of sedimentary and volcanic terroirs contributes both aromatic lift and structural finesse, while cool nighttime temperatures preserve acidity and freshness. The 2022 vintage produced wines with expressive fruit, balance, and elegant texture.

Winemaking & Technical Notes
Crafted with a minimalist, terroir-focused philosophy, the fruit is hand-harvested and fermented in small lots with gentle extraction to preserve purity and site expression. Aging in French oak barrels adds texture and complexity while allowing the wine’s natural vibrancy and detail to remain central. The winemaking emphasizes finesse, transparency, and balance over sheer power, resulting in a refined and expressive Pinot Noir.

Tasting Notes
Bright ruby in the glass, the 2022 opens with aromas of red cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry, and rose petal layered with hints of baking spice, forest floor, and tea leaf. The palate is silky and energetic, offering vibrant red fruit framed by fine tannins and lively acidity. Subtle earthy and savory nuances emerge through the mid-palate, leading to a long, elegant finish marked by freshness, precision, and delicate mineral tension.

Food Pairing & Service
A highly versatile Pinot Noir, this wine pairs beautifully with duck, roast chicken, salmon, mushroom dishes, and herb-driven cuisine. It also complements charcuterie and soft-ripened cheeses. Serve slightly below room temperature to highlight its aromatic complexity and freshness, and consider a brief decant in its youth.

Cellaring Potential
Built for graceful evolution, this Pinot Noir will continue to develop over the next 8–12 years. With time, its bright fruit and floral profile will deepen into more savory, earthy, and spice-driven complexity while maintaining the balance and elegance that define great Willamette Valley Pinot Noir.
