Item Description
Passion for Pinot with a Sense of Place is what defines WillaKenzie Estate, a family owned winery located in the heart of the Willamette Valley. The winery is named after the sedimentary soil on which the vines are planted to reflect the ultimate expression of “terroir”. With strong connections to France, the winery is a frequent event partner of the FACC and the Alliance.
At WillaKenzie they are strongly committed to wines which reflect the place on which the grapes are grown, sustainable farming, clean winemaking, small production of Vineyard Designated Pinots, respect of the environment and of the people who work in the vineyards and winery.
The winning bidder will enjoy this 6-bottle collection of the 2011 PIERRE LEON Pinot Noir, a burgundy, red garnet and ruby to the eyes. On the nose is white pepper, dark fruit and herbal notes. On the palate you’ll find round yet firm tannins, intriguing bright spicy notes, red and black currants and cranberries. Sensual and silky with a long finish. Enjoy this wine now through 2020.
