The 2018 Pinot Noir showcases a beautiful ruby hue in the glass. Pleasant aromas of raspberry, Bing cherry, and hints of earthy forest floor and chanterelle mushrooms mingle. The palate exudes bright red fruit flavors of cherry and cranberry which are complemented by a focused mid-palate of black pepper and lightly roasted coffee beans. The finish has bright flavors with perfectly balanced acidity.
A platter with rich, creamy cheeses like Gorgonzola, Camembert, Morbier, or Pont L’Eveque will pair beautifully with Four Graces Pinot Noir.
This wine makes for a great pairing for a light pasta affair.
Duck and pinot noir is a classic pairing because both offer moderate intensity, with pinot noir's acidity balancing out the fattiness of duck.
Named for the four daughters of the founders, The Four Graces are sustainably farmed, well-tended vineyards with the goal of producing rich, elegant, delicious, and complex wines. The Black family purchased an existing vineyard in the Dundee Hills of the Willamette Valley in 2003 as a family retreat. They immediately began turning the estate into a sustainably farmed, well-tended vineyard with the goal of producing rich, elegant, delicious and complex wines. That same year, The Four Graces was founded. The winery is named in honor of the Black’s four daughters. In 2005 the Black’s purchased the Doe Ridge property in Yamhill-Carlton to continue the growth of the brand.
