A melange of bright berries mingles with perfectly paired spice in the fresh and zesty Willamette Valley blend from Lange. The palate offers mouthfuls of bright cranberries, blood orange zest and candied raspberry flavours. A savoury freshness follows with fresh wintergreen and white pepper—an alluring wine of freshness and verve with a laser-focused minerality and bright acid lift. Drinking Window 2024-2031.

The 2022 Pinot Noir Classique is distinctly savory, with a burst of white pepper, roses and lavender giving way to wild strawberries. Textures of pure silk are displayed as clove-infused wild berry fruits cascade throughout. This tapers off perfumed and spiced with a residual bump of acidity, maintaining a lovely freshness.

The 2022 ‘Classique’ comes from a range of sites including the Estate and Freedom Hill Vineyards. This offers macerated strawberry notes that combine with balsamic vinegar, cedar, and pretty red florals. Fresh and nicely textured, with good weight, this delicious Pinot Noir that is already nicely evolved.
 
Winemaker Notes
The 2022 Lange Winery Willamette Valley Pinot Noir shows aromas of raspberry, underbrush, red-bush tea, and baking spice. Flavors of boysenberry, black cherry, cranberry, and cedar. Round with plush tannins and harmonious structure. Finishes with mineral tones, baking spice, and dried orange peel.
