2016 Purple Hands Pinot Noir Shea Vineyard Yamhill-Carlton Oregon

Pale to medium ruby-purple in color, the 2016 Pinot Noir Shea Vineyard has a classic nose of bright cherry and cranberry with notions of cola, red licorice, dried leaves and spice. The palate is light to medium-bodied with a good core of earthy red fruit and lots of spicy layers, framed by grainy tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing long and savory. 250 cases produced.
