2017 Holocene "Memorialis" Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
Bid on this 3-bottle lot of 2017 Holocene "Memorialis" Willamette Valley Pinot Noir ((93-95JD), 92WE). Jeb Dunnuck: "Raspberry, dried flowers, sappy herbs, and hints of strawberries all emerge from the 2017 Pinot Noir Memorialis, which is fresh and lively on the palate, with a tight, tactile, grippy sensation. With beautiful purity, integrated acidity and a great finish, it has a touch of Chambolle-Musigny character and will keep for a decade or more (JD)." (04/2018)

Wine Enthusiast
“This is a new, under-the-radar project from Force Majeure winemaker Todd Alexander. The grapes are sourced from the Monks' Gate vineyard in Yamhill-Carlton. Lush aromatics roll from spicy cranberry into rich strawberry, blueberry and red plum, along with details of baking spices and composted earth. Hints of herbs continue on through the finish. Fermented with native yeast, it was finished in 25% new French oak (PG).” (09/2020)

Wine Advocate
“Pale ruby, the 2017 Pinot Noir Memorialis has light scents of red berries, earth, woodsmoke and potpourri. The palate is light to medium-bodied with bright, spice-laced fruits, a gentle graininess and long, juicy finish. (EB)” (04/2020)
