Battle Creek Cellars Pinot Noir 'Unconditional' 2020

True to the very essence of Oregon’s pioneering spirit, Battle Creek Cellars is built on a foundation of rugged elegance and unconventional sensibility. Their wines are crafted to showcase the simple approachability, dedicated farming and winemaking and a transparency of terroir they work into every bottle. With a sincere adoration of the region, Battle Creek earns a place on your table with unconditional gratitude. Their focus is on thoughtfully made artisan wine without any pomp and circumstance. Whether sourced from their namesake vineyard, Battle Creek, or their other beloved vineyards throughout the state, their wines are distinctively Oregon. 

The aromatics of this wine are dark, brooding and evolve constantly in the glass from black huckleberry and wild blueberry to orange blossom and camphor, from Concord grape to freshly rolled cigars, ever expanding and developing. The entry is transparent to the nose, ethereal and constantly changing, delivering notes of boysenberries and fresh, resinous pine. The mid-palate and finish offer the depth and structure of sinewy tannins supported by the natural acid backbone that is characteristic of this vineyard.
