Description
Hundred Suns: a reference to the approximately 100-day growing season between flowering and harvest. Also: what one Pinot freak wine critic called “the best secret bargain in Oregon Pinot right now.” We’d wish he’d shush -- at least until our perma-allocation is secured, along with a lifetime price guarantee! Their 'Old Eight Cut' (named for a diamond cut dating back to the 1400s that used simple tools and few cuts to enhance the natural brilliance of the stone without disguising its true nature) is approachable, bright, and velvety. Floral on the nose (violets, lilacs, spice notes), the palate shows red raspberry fruit, along with piney, woodsy earth. Shine on, you crazy diamond!
