2011 Coupe's Cuvée Pinot Noir Dessert Wine
Regular price $27.00
Now in the fourth vintage of this unique port-style Pinot noir, this version of Coupe's draws upon the Wadenwil clone in the Ribbon Ridge for richness and the 115 clone in the Eola-Amity Hill for spiciness. Showing finesse that is uncharacteristic of Port, what ultimately makes this a Pinot noir first, and a dessert wine second is elegance. At 5.4% residual sugar, it is enough to balance with the acidity, but not so much as to overwhelm the expression of the fruit. Still very small in production, this is a wine we traditionally release in the fall, but because of its balance, maintains its appeal throughout the year, pairing well with a broad range of desserts, or delightful on its own.
