You’d be hard pressed to find a better Willamette Valley Pinot Noir value than this early release from Stoller. It has a beautifully earthy mix of blackberry tea and loamy soil aromas that are complemented by notes of seared steak and lilacs. It is a balanced, almost medium-bodied wine, with a silky texture. Flavors like blackberry jam, thyme, cedar wood, and a tart and tangy bit of sumac coat the palate in fine fashion. *Editor’s Choice*
